nvidia 6600gt overclocking...

[streetster]

Hey Guys,

Had my card running 600/1200 (core/mem) up from the default 525/1050, and it has been fine with 3dmark2001/3/5 but then after a while i start getting artifacts - esp in cs:source after maybe 20/30mins - but not *always*... which im guessing is a heat issue (otherwise they'd be there from the start surely?)

should i get myself a new cooler for it - what would fit the BFG 6600gt AGP card? - i heard that there will be a new arctic cooler (rev 6 i think) released soonish, any places got stock ?

cheers!

It should be available from www.overclock.uk but I'm not sure if it's in stock right now.

RDL's right,

just out of interest, where did you get your 6600gt from and for how much streetster?

[streetster]

was one of the ones from PC World, popped down on the bankholiday monday, nabbed the last one in store £100

oh and cheers RDL for the linkeh

edit:



will this cover the PCI-e -> AGP chip, and actually fit my 6600gt?

AFAIK it's not out yet - I emailed AC about it a few weeks ago and they said:

We will have a new model NV Silencer 6 which will be compatible on NV6600
PCIe and 6600GT PCIe. We expected it will be available in Feb 2005.

Best Regards

bugger.. no 6600 agp then

[RDL]

No. These do fit agp models, just not PCI-e models.
