Can anyone please recommend me an app that will allow me to safely overclock my 8800GTS ?

Also, anyone has any experience overclocking a similar card ? how far did it go ?
 
ATI Tool 0.27b will do it nice for you. You should know that since 158.18 though, there is much less OC room, but the drivers themselves massively boosted the performance of the card, so it's a win-win nonetheless !

Your OC will depend of your cooling, and luck ! A friend of mine OC'ed his GTS quite bit, prior to 158.18 ... since I own a GTX I'm not sure what the norms for a GTS is...
 
I strongly suggest Rivatuner to set the clocks and ATiTool to test them. I am at 639/1900 right now...:D

I have an eVGA 8800GTS.
I use ATITool.
0.26 or 0.27 will do. No big difference.

Just use "Find Max Core" and "Find Max Memory" and when you get a speed you like, Scan for Artifacts for about, 10 hours. If your stable, try to increase. If your satisfied, there you go. :)
 
I dont like to use anything automatic. I would try to bring your core down to 500 and then see how high your mem goes... if it still doesnt go up then i would be concerned about overclockability but the thing is that if they sell it to you at 1650 or less then you cant really RMA it but if its BELOW stock. I personally have gotten very good luck in overclocking but ive seen better... Soon ill try going to 648 and 657 :D
 
Okay, i just looked and the stock clocks on the OC BFG card are 1600, so if you are getting over 1600 then you are fine and cant RMA.
 
Both, but these videocards arent as memory starved as the other ones were so you dont have to overclock the memory much when you overclock the core.

People are not going to tell you what clocks.
YOU need to find out.
Download ATITool, and mess around with it.

Core:
Don't try above 681.
Don't try below 500.

Memory:
Don't try above 1025.
Don't try below 800.

Test your stability.
