Overclocked 6600

[FPSDavid]

I took my Gigabyte 6600 PCI-e from 300/550 to 575/675. Was this a good OC? I got 3405 on in 3dmark05.

whats your gpu temps? what kinda cooling are you using? i have the gigabyte 6600gt pci-e but im afraid to oc it. i just got my new rig 5 days ago

with what little experience i have, i think that the 6600 series wouldnt experience major heat problems as long as you dont oc it like crazy

Nvidia has implemented thermal throttling, which makes it difficult to actually fry the GPU. As PCStats.com said in an Overclocking Guide "You have to TRY to fry them."

Stock cooling, not sure what the temp is...

Holy crap... you got the core almost 2x. I'd say that's pretty good.
