    Hey guys! just wanted to know if u guys could be so kind to post your clock speeds for your nVidia 8400M GT . I have the DDR3 version if that matters so much.

    Make sure your posts are stable and also mention your drivers!

    Thanks you :)

    I have it OC'd to 550/650, and my 3DMark scores show the dramatic difference. Still runs at an average of 74 degrees during heavy load.

    The 8400m gt seems to be far less popular than the 8400m gs and the 8600m. So it is not a big surprise that few people overclocked it.

    Twice the power of the GS. I have no problem running CoD4, all on Extra, 1024x768 and steady 45+ FPS. Sure, it's not the highest resolution as some, but still looks fantastic.

    No.. most people use 3dmark06 but i just add a few mhz (10 or so) to each clock at a time and play while keeping an eye on temps :)

    Iv read about people getting temps of 80*C under load with this card and near 70*C idle so i guess i got a good deal :)))
