Overclocking

As evident from the overclocked editions of the GeForce 8800 GT soon to pop up in retail, this card does seem capable of much higher clocks than its default, probably due to its 'cooler' 65nm core, which didn't seem that cool to us during testing. We did not actually have the time to try out the absolute limits of our reference card, but we did test it with an overclocked BIOS provided by NVIDIA. This BIOS pushed the core clock to 650MHz while the memory clocks were raised to 2000MHz DDR. Our 3DMark06 scores are shown below and it is quite apparent that the GeForce 8800 GTX faces serious competition here, particularly if overclocked editions are as popular as they are nowadays.
