8800gt vs 8800gt ssc

How much gain am i supposed to see between these 2 cards?

i flashed my bios to EVGA's ssc, 7340 3dmark 06
i then ran my bfg OC and got 7236
and after that, i overclocked my BFG OC to SSC speeds and got 7335.

That looks about right to be honest. I wouldnt expect much more than 200 points from just a straight overclock. You'd probably see a bigger jump if you increased your CPU clock too.

You may as well just use Rivatuner or nTune to set the clocks at windows startup, rather than go through the pain of flashing the card.

I've read about the GT and GTS SSC - but what's a GT SSC?

BFG 8800gt OC is clocked at 625/1800
EVGA 8800gt SSC is clocked at 700/2000


i now dont see the point in overclocking the BFG to SSC speeds for the sake of 100 points on 3dmark.

dont forget shader clocks increases too on the ssc....what cpu are you running, your 06 scores seem low

for my 8800gts and 8800GT scores....

using a xp3000, overclocked to 2.6gig. not ordered a q6600 yet.

Fair enough, was just trying to work out what the bottleneck was on your score ;)

Glad you even managed to find a gt - nice buy mate :D

where do you find the bios flash file for the ssc

got it from mvtech. best to see if your card can be be overclocked to them speeds first.

there was about 40 on ebuyer, a day later there was like 3. so i ended up ordering that day.
