I have this little problem when oc'ing my vid card. The oc'ing utility works fine and oc'ing boosts my 3dMark03 score etc.
BUT, the problem is that I can only oc ~10MHz core and 0MHz memory. I could oc more, but then my benchmark performance (and I'm guessing game performance too) get's lower than what it was before oc'ing.
1st I tought it was the heat, but even when oc'd (and idle) the core temp is 38-41C, which doesn't seem high at all. In the middle of aquamark3 48C. These temps provided by nvidia display.
So what can I do? Maybe increasing the voltage would help? If so then how do I do it? I don't want to spend any money on it since I'm probably going to get a new vid card soon since this one is old.
Oh almost forgot, the card is nVidia GeForce FX 5700 (256mb)
ohh my memory sucks.
Sooo, any other tips in getting better performance out of my card are welcome.
