Whats the highest overclock users have achieved on the gt335m

Just wondering what the highest stable oc has been and what its benchmark scores were 3dmark vantage preferably

 

tassadar898 was posting the best OC and scores a while back.

 

I topped 8.8k with a score around 8830 but i cant find the damn screenshot cause like with all my other files i saved it as adafsdgsdg in some random folder and now i cant find it oh well. I think this screen shot i had a OC of around ~585/1485/940.

 

if i can get a voltmod workin on the GPU i think i can top 9.5 maybe even 10k!

 

Question:

Sorry, a bit off topic but figured it cant hurt to ask...

Iv been doing some experimenting with overclocking this weekend and haven't had much success while gaming. I would eventually freeze/crash and have to reset the laptop.

I would be able to achieve a 3dmark06 score of 8431 using a 540/850(linked) overclock. Anything higher would usually crash the 3d test. Anything lower would pass the test but have trouble with games. I tried to troubleshoot the problem with lower and lower clocks but would eventually be back to default values. I'm using the latest nvidea verde driver and also using thottlestop with a CPU overclock of 166mhz.

Any insight would be great, thanks!

 

You can always do it again

If you're going to pin mod your M11xR2 you'll need as many benchmarks as you can get beforehand. During the change you probably shouldn't modify the system other than the pin mod due to constant analysis.

i.e Before/After.

Hay, wow, the OP got banned.???

 

Did it again got a little higher

This is before trying to tweak the voltage regulator, im still waiting on my damn arctic silver 5

 

That's ridiculously higher than I can OC my 335. Then again it is 29F outside right now...

Here's the best I was able to pull off a few months ago.

 

try unlinkin the shaders and raising the shader frequency.

 

Hay, stop giving away the secrets.

That is an insanely high memory clock. My card resets on anything much over 900.

EVGA max's at a memory clock of 948.

Highest I have managed is a memory clock of 912 and I think that was a one off. That run was 590/1416/912 using M11xR1 SU7300 1.6Ghz BIOS A05 Nvidia 260.63 with a 3Dmark06 score of 6924

My highest 3DMark06 score was with lower clocking at 585/1404/890 using M11xR1 SU7300 1.6Ghz BIOS A05 Nvidia 197.72 with a 3Dmark06 score of 6989

And you know what a 3DMark06 of 6989 does to someone working with computers for 25 years, I can't let it go until I get over 7000.

Life can be so cruel at times.

 

try downloads the new nvidia drivers, you wont be able to switch but i got a nice little boost from that 266.XX drivers.

 

True. Others have got over 7000 on a stock M11xR1, so I'll just rejoice in there success.

I like my switching. An M11x with a fan that hardly comes on when in integrated mode.

Installing a Nvidia driver set to run a test then un-installing it, sounds a bit like obsessing to me.

Maybe, one day, on a future Hybrid Nvidia driver set, one never knows.

 

I feel your pain at 7952. Try using Memset to mess with RAM timings. That might add the dozen points you need.

 

I went through tons of different settings, linked/unlinked, just clock, just memory, just shader, etc before it dawned on me that I really don't give a rat's hiney about GPU OC. I've got a spreadsheet around somewhere. In any case my 335 just isn't able to achieve the OC that others can. Just how it goes.

 

I won't rest until my benchmark is (dare I say it?) OVER 9000!

 

As far as highest 335M GPU OC, have you checked the OC I put down on this GPU See sig link for screenshot. Be interesting to see what that produces with a pin mod.

OC: 633/912/1461

 

Something is wrong with my GT335m T_T

I have an M11xR2 i7 OCed 166Mhz + ThrottleStop and the only thing I can say... this machine is awesome.

But for some reason I can't overclock the GPU, everytime I try to overclock it older games like Lineage II just crash and I need to reboot, and when I do it over 510 GPU Clock (linked) all the other games crash sometimes (incluiding 3DMark06), and over 550 all my games will crash for sure. (Temperatures never go over 75°)

Without GPU overclock everything is normal no crashes nor freezes, I tried both EVGA Precision and MSI Afterburner.

HALP ._.

 

try running your CPU stock and see what happens to your Gfx OC.

 

It didn't work >:

 

I have the same problem

 

Just like CPUs, GPUs are not all created equal. If you have stability issues, go down in 5mhz increments until you find a stable OC.

Also, are you OCing the memory at the same time? I find my GPU OC's very unstable >525 with the memory at 790, but at 890 I can get the GPU to 585. You may have to play around with your memory clock a bit as well, as they don't all behave the same either.

 

I tried numerous overclocks, non seem stable enough without overheating and eventually freezing. Does this vary with drivers and cpu overclocks?

 

Yes it could. Have you tried a small OC? Like to 455 or 460? You really shouldn't have stability issues at those frequencies, otherwise the chip wouldn't have passed QC @ 450. If you are having issues, then you're either very unlucky, or it's related to something else (like drivers).

 

As roxxor has suggested, it can be the luck of the draw on hardware.

I've read of many M11xR1 owners who can't over-clock their CPU at all and have to make do with 1.3Ghz.

That said, with the GPU much can be attributed to Nvidia version, other background processes you're running and poorly written games. Dare I say it.

 

Curious, what signs besides obvious overheating and or locking up would you guys expect to see with OC'ing the GPU if it were just a bit too much? I am seeing some flickering shadows/textures and can't decide if they were always there or are a result of OC'ing the GPU...

 

If you see visual corruption (textures missing, models tearing, etc), then that's a good sign that the OC is too high. Usually though, those problems are not as subtle as you describe, and very rarely can you continue to play stably with the visual artifacting (it does happen though - I loaded a game with no textures once, and could still play it). A bit of flickering here in there might be due to the OC, but could also be due to bad programming, or driver implementation, etc.

I wouldn't worry about it unless it affects your gaming experience.

 

You could cheat ...... like i did
But one might also think that your score should take the screen res into account.

 

Are you guys using this method to oc: YouTube - How To Over-Clock M11x R2

I've tried it...Doesn't seem to make a difference. :/

If you're not, could someone possibly link me to a guide on the fourms?

 

It doesn't make a difference because you're missing a key step.

Here's your quick and dirty guide:

1. go to BIOS like in that youtube video, select 166mhz
2. save and reboot
3. if windows boots, you're in good shape, if it doesn't, go back to BIOS select another frequency, rinse and repeat until you find a stable OC that boots
4. download and install throttlestop from here (and read the thread)
5. set TDP/TDC power limits to 30,30 (see thread in step 4)
6. turn on throttlestop
7. profit!

 

Thanks for the response!

My interface for Throttlestop looks completely different from the images he posted, and I can't right click to bring up the turbo-boost options.

(I used the download link he gave me.)

EDIT: Nevermind! I got it, thank you very much!

 

edit: made my own thread

 

Do i have to pinmod on order to overclock gpu?? Or can i jus overclock with software... One more thing... Do i risk frying my gpu?? I fried a nvidia 6800gt back in the day when they existed lol thanks for your help this is really the best forum i ever been on

 

You can OC with software, no pinmodding requried - I recommend either EVGA Precision or MSI Afterburner (both are based on rivatuner).

The risk of frying the GPU is low, since it automatically downclocks itself if it gets too hot.

PS. I also fried a 6800GT.

 

Will i see an improvement in gaming or barely??? NOt benchmarking im more intersted in real gameplay fps improvement. in other words is it worth it to o/c the gpu? Thank you for your time

 

Think i'm missing the party cause maximum i have it 540x1300x890. Anything higher just crash my driver.

 

Most people manage a 15-20% overclock, which translates to a concomitant increase in FPS in GPU-bound games. Whether or not it's worth it depends on your tastes more than anything else.

 

Im 3Dmark06 stable at 565 1360 940 but iv gotten my memory clock to 990 before.
