Overclocking X300SE-How High
Hello All
New Dell 8400 owner with the X300SE
3.0 Prescott
1GB Ram
160 SATA
Newest Omega Drivers
Wanted to know other peoples experiences with overclocking the X300SE? This card is too basic so I am trying to get the most out of it before I need to upgrade. Waiting for availabiliy and prices to come down on the 6600GT.
Anyways, I was hoping others could post their successful overclock values and 3DMark scores. Here are Mine:
Description Core Clock Memory Clock 3DMark2001 3DMark03
Stock 324 196 6671 1885
OC1 385 216 7511 2133
OC2 405 223 7770 2204
Thanks...
Oh, also wanted to note that I installed a PCI slot fan that draws air from inside the case, across the heatsink on the card and out the case. Seems to work great! I picked mine up at a local Microcenter for $17.

Right now I am seeing the 6600GT around $215 to $230. Would prefer $175 or so. Don't own Doom3 yet but with Half life2 and Halo2 coming soon it will be hard not to upgrade by the end of the year. Will have to keep checking online and see about pricing around Thanksgiving.
Anyway, I have already extracted 17% more out of the X300SE and want to see how much more I can safely get. Anyone have any results???
