    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?

    Re: 8800gt vs 8800gt 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

    See here - http://forums.hexus.net/graphics-car...ts-review.html

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

    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

    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.

  10. Received thanks from:
