See if you can tighten those up. I know your ram is already overclocked from 400 to 537, but you still might be able to tighten up those timings to 5-5-5-15. May take a bit of extra volts, but that G.Skill is killer ram. I know. I have it in my system :P

And for the love of all that is holy. Overclock that 260 my good man!

Especially since it's wc'ed using a full-cover block...

[WolfBane]

Hey John always good to see you :)
Ok what do i use to oc my wc gpu?
software and what shuld i oc it to ?
lol and my ram i need to set up in my bios i am assuming ?
and what should i up the voltage to ?

I am pretty maxed on the cpu oc and keep it stable tho:)

[3.0charlie]

Ram? BIOS. Change the secondary timings one at a time, then use Memtest (MemTest: RAM reliability tester for Windows) to validate the change. I don't remember the max. volts on those sticks, but I'm sure Sagath with chime in.

GPU? Use eVga's Precision (EVGA | EVGA Precision | EVGA Precision) and change as follows:

core 650
shaders 1500
mem 1100

Those are my Folding-stable clocks on the BFG and evga 260 192 SPs that are installed in my Main rig.

*wimpers*. OC please!

Thanks Charlie. 2.1 is the 'recommended' max by G.Skill. Some people have taken it higher without issues. You shouldnt need to go higher then that, I have mine running at 1.9 at the listed timings in my sig. Your ram is OC'd a bit harder then mine (I keep mine at a 5:6 ratio, so I dont have a need to go higher). Try 1.9, if it gives you problems up it to 2.0 then 2.1. If it wont stay stable, back the timings off to 6-6-6-20 and reset the volts to 1.9, rinse/repeat. My hope is that it'll be stable at 5-5-5-20(15?) at 1.9 volts for you, like mine.

Those are pritty conservative numbers charlie! Grab Furmark (FurMark: Graphics Card Stability and Stress Test, OpenGL Benchmark and GPU Temperature | oZone3D.Net) start with charlies numbers, and see how high you can go. This is a pritty good gfx overclocking guide to get you started: Up the Core until you get triangles/crashes, back it off 10-20mhz . Do the same with the shaders, until triangles/crashes. Ram is similar, but you'll see white (or green) dots when it errors.

nVidia has a GPU recovery message now (atleast in Vista). Thats the 'crash' I'm talking about.

[3.0charlie]

Yes, I'm conservative about the 260s. This is my Main rig / work rig, I ain't pushing it...

i couldn't oc the ram it said oc failed everytime So i enable the SPD to get back on

[3.0charlie]

Did you bump the Vram to 2.1V?

And the 260 oc? How did that go?

[WolfBane]

ok i set the mem voltage in the bios to 210 and it still gave me an oc error , so i had to enable SPD to get system back again .
i oced the vid card to 700
1600
1200
and my temps on a load are at 39 C
is trhat ok?

[3.0charlie]

Probably some secondary timing that doesn't like your board. For the little performance gain, leave it at that.

For the GPU, have you checked your new oc settings using FAH / Furmark as Sagath explained? Forget the temps, the GPU is wc'ed...

[Prof. Dr. Silver]

39C load temps??? My cards run almost 3 times as warm!!! Awesome job! Fold away!

Yep. 200 series love water. LOVE. My 275 clocks in a loop with my CPU at 100% crest at about 47c under furmark.

I just hope I can find another 275 that clocks (nearly) as well when I SLI

[WolfBane]

Ok i ran furmark and got it up to 52 c and low was at 36 c :) i guess thats good :)
But i am run ning the vid card with my cpu in a single loop , Gonna have to work on a second loop , That way i can seperate the cpu from the gpu:)
should get some better temps then :)

[3.0charlie]

I'd leave your loop just like it it is...
