hey guys,

is there a way to bypass the nvidia overclock test, and overlcock further than the driver allows you?

the reason im asking is that i have an XpertVision 6600GT PCI-E and it wont go past 550/1060 with the nvidia drivers..
 
You can but not with the Nvidia driver's control panel.

Download Rivatuner (www.guru3d.com) and within Rivatuner there is a mini registry editor and you can disable the clock test. Then you can OC with Rivatuner till the card blows up if you feel like it. But the card won't be all that stable over the tested speeds, but who knows.

Edit: Within the mini registry editor ("Power User" tab) go under "Nvidia \ Overclocking" and click on "Disable internal Clock test" then add a "1" in the blank on the right.

Then go to "Global \ Overclocking" and Do the same thing for "DisableClocktest"

Also ATI Tool has a good artifacts scanner thing and you can use the scanner even if you have an Nvidia card. This will help you determine when the memory speeds are getting to high. You can get ATI Tool off Guru3d as well.
 
cool, thanks buddy
ill try that now....hopefully this kickass card wont die...
 
No problem, you just gotta overclock a few mhz at a time and after each bump up check for artifacts with ATI Tool to monitor the memory and use 3D Mark 03 or something intensive to check the GPU for stability.
 
sweet.. I thought this was a 6800gt and I was like WOW BABY! :)
 
The best artifact tests I've ever used and heard of were: (used) Farcry, (heard of) rhtbl (can never remember if I spelt it right).
