Gigabyte GTX 260 (216SP) 896MB Super Overclock Review

Overclocking Results


Believe it or not, I wasn’t expecting much of any additional overclocking headroom with the GTX 260 Super Overclock. It may have been naiveté on my part but from experience, the cards that push the limits of pre-overclocking rarely have much left in the tank. Once again though, Gigabyte surprised me with an additional 42Mhz of headroom on the core and 160Mhz (DDR) for the memory. Incredible!

Final Overclocks:

Core: 722Mhz
Shaders: 1593Mhz
Memory: 2660Mhz (DDR)
