GeForce GTX 275 Roundup (Gigabyte, EVGA, MSI, Sparkle, BFG)

Overclocking Results

What do we consider a stable overclock? If the card can pass our test which involves a 20 minute loop of 3DMark06, 30 minutes of playing Far Cry 2 and an additional 30 minute gameplay sequence in Left 4 Dead, it is considered stable.

Since overclocking can vary from one card to the next within the same family of cards, you should be aware that these results will not be considered when voicing our final opinions about these four cards. As such, we will show you the final overclocking results but leave our opinions to ourselves and let you guys form your own conclusions.
