Overclocking the EVGA 8800GTX ACS3
Single and SLI Overclocking!

Published on Saturday, November 11 2006 8:11 am by VRArchiver

Filed under: Archives, Guides, Overclocking

Now, let's put this altogether and slap the cooler onto the EVGA 8800GTX ACS3 Edition!!! But what board to run this on?

My Cascaded and Volt-modded EVGA NForce 680i SLI!!

Now let's do some Dry Ice runs! With -40C cooling, I got this card to 842MHz Core, and 1240MHz Memory!!

What da hell?? 17,597 3D Mark 06 with just single card?? That's easily over what extremely overclocked 7900GTX SLI can get! Good stuff!! But.... time to go SLI yea??

I love this picture man, the solid container is so masssive I had to use a wooden peg so she doesn't snap the motherboard!!

22,799 3D Mark 06 with just 822/1240!! In SLI Mode, it's all CPU bottlenecked now, I need more CPU Power. Like in Game Test 1, I get same frame rate at stock GPU clocks. More overclocking to come for sure!

Remember, this was done on a pair of these babies:
