GTX555 Overclock

Hello,

Is it safe to install Nvidia System Tools in order to overclock a GTX555?

How far should I go?

NitroZZeLLo,

Dell does not recommend overclocking the video card. Notice in the X51 Bios, there are no overclocking options. That is by design. These settings were chosen for stability:
Graphics Clock = 736 MHz
Memory Clock = 1914 MHz
Processor Clock = 1472 MHz
CUDA Cores = 288

Hi,

If your overclocking just use MSI Afterburner or EVGA Precision X. I had a 555 OC'd from memory i had the CORE up to 850. I increased the memory clock but that actually reduced performance. My advise for the 555 is only increase the core clock, 850 was a decent boost and didnt affect temps that much, feel free to push it further .
