Memory 1850mhz???

Tweaking on memory even the slightest bit ended up in the card clocking down real fast when stressed (NV safe sentinel kicks in). The GPU itself with some extra voltage could be taken from roughly 600 MHz towards ~775 MHz, and that's a very decent 175 MHz overclock. Anything higher would either create instability after a while or again that NV SAFE sentinel kicking in and downclocking the card to 400 MHz.

@nunoleite46 Every card is different and can be clocked to different speeds, yours might not be able to be clocked that high.

hi! what about Zotac GTX 570? is better than GTX 470 OCed? with i5 2500K 3.3 for BF3!

[RonnieB5555]

@julianpropaMD83 I'm not sure, have a look at some videos on youtube I'm sure someone will have that CPU and the 570, check their performance and see if you can find the same CPU with a 470, if not look at some reviews and compare teh stock scores and add a few points onto the 470 score.

What is the max voltaje recommended to use?

[RonnieB5555]

@MrBigDicked Just keep raising it by a couple at a time until the fps in a game stops going up or drops.

My gtx 470 is ruuing at 750 core, linked shader, stock voltage and stock memory, and it has not crashed once!

I'm looking for game benchmarks but I found only call of pripyat.My vga is asus gtx470 and I'm doing some overklocking and it will be good to test it with more benchmarks.

@julianpropaMD83 my 470 from zotac has quite the same performance as a 560
