System Specs

GTX 260's @ 4890 Clocks

So i was just dorking around with NiBiTor today and found how to flash voltages to the 65nm (192SP) gtx 260's permanently using the register modification feature they added, gave it a little bump to 1.215 and voila... stable 850 mhz core and 1700 mhz shaders (yeah technically not 4890 clocks, but 850Mhz core and i had to make a catchy title ).



gonna try for 900-1000 at 1.3ish tomorrow... gpu's haven't broken 40C yet. Memory and drivers are massively bottlenecking the vantage score. couldn't believe my eyes though.

gotta get some ZZz's for tonight.

probably around 8.2K per card for the smaller WU's and around 6 for the 511's - while the GPU's are watercooled, the VRM's are just under an aluminum heatsink...

That kind of sucks (and something I didnt anticipate) since even at 1.215 volts the VRM's will break 110C after 24h of folding

During hours of gaming they don't really break 70C so i can try to push the cards.

UPDATE:

Well it seems like voltage are really not as important as temps for these cards.... I cant seem to stabilize the 864Mhz core and 1728 shaders even with 1.3v

They just render noise and the computer hard locks... ill try a bit more later...
