    GPU Clocks...

    Well apparently zepto has taken a stand with its fan issues with an apparent underclock of its GPU in both Core Clock, Memory Clocks, and Shader clock...
    During a small search of overclocking possibilities I stumbled upon these numbers from my GPU.

    NV Monitor.
    GPU core (3D): 168 MHz
    GPU memory: 100 MHz ???

    Rivatuner.
    Core Clock 182.25 MHz
    Core clock\Shader domain: 364.5 MHz
    Memory clock, 799.2 MHz
    (Specs in the bottom)

    Now according to CLB's overclocking thread
    The default speed should be on 475/950/400.

    The driver version is 163.14 with modded INFs

    ----
    So any other has this encounter? Whenever I try to reach the default clockspeed in nTune it wont let me (meaning it defaults back everytime I try to OC) but should I manually achieve it in rivatuner perhaps?

    you cant overclock with 163.14, and it might be at those values because its in low-power mode, try running a 3d game and have rivatuner monitor in the background all the time

    Try GPUZ to see if it detects the right clocks

    GPUZ

    OR, it could be in low power mode as Sprint said... but I don't think the 160 series have Powermizer support for mobile cards, yet! (which is a shame really)

    I must give out my apologies for my wrong accusations, apparently the powermizer was on but I thought it only went into powersave if the powerjack was unplugged thanks N0elia ... And thanks Sprint for the OC tip.

    You know it's against forum rules to ask for rep :) I think some Mod said that in another thread

    Mutantius; Do you even know how to rep?
