BFG 9800GTX OCX Graphics Card Review

Overclocking…yes, it goes further

Overclocking the BFG 9800GTX WILL void your warranty.

Max Overclocks

Core: 825Mhz
Memory: 2476Mhz (DDR)

If you have a good memory, you may remember that our reference-clocked 9800GTX reached clocks of 807 / 2448 on the core and memory and believe it or not, the BFG 9800GTX OCX got a bit further. Since it uses the same core and memory as a reference card, we believe these increased overclocks are simply due to some mundane reasons. The higher core clock is probably due to the increased cooling potential afforded by the higher fan speeds while the memory overclock is probably due to luck of the draw with the memory modules. Just remember: overclocking experiences may vary so our clocks may not be repeatable with every BFG 9800GTX OCX.
