    I tested some OC progs and i can only find where to clock memory and core, i know shader gets clocked when u clock core but i wanna clock shader manually because u can take shader much higher than core, so how do i seperate shader from core to clock only shader?

    my 7600go was 350 core 350 memory stock i clocked it to 480/440 but i would like to clock shader as well

    How did you change the core and memory freqs?

    I use ATI tool, i tested riva tuner as well. Both work good for memory and core. i use the 179.xx drivers from nvidia

    Try NVIDIA System Tools 6.02... with some newer drivers if possible, like maybe some 186 drivers...

    Only until the 8000 series you can manually increase shader clocks because it is a new and different architecture.

    7000 series still uses the old Pixel and vertex pipelines&shaders, so you can't increase their frequency, only Core and memory.

    Ahh, ok. That makes sense, because they went from Pixex/Vertex Shaders to Stream Processors. Never had a 7xxx series GPU but I've read about a couple of them. :)

    you can go way higher than these clocks and I mean way higher on my sister's Fujitsu with 7300GO I OCed it to 450 core,900 memory (1800 effective) and the 7600 is extremely faster than the 7300

    The OCed GO7300 is still running fine with these clocks after 3 years with temps never exceeding 60 degrees while playing Dragon Age origins which runs quite smooth with everything low and 1024x768 res

    The 7300's stock clocks are generally 350Mhz core and 700mhz ram, so Satyrion essentially has the same oc as you. Not to mention that the 7600 is more complex than the 7300.
