485m overclocking results?

First time OC'er dude, still learning .. I just ran furmark at the 1080p benchmark a few times before running the other benchmarks..

What settings should I be doin exactly??

Thanks man

 

thats alright, just that ur temps seem almost too good to be true!

let furmark run for 10 minutes at the following settings:

full screen checked
resolution 1920x1080
anti-aliasing at 8xMSAA
dynamic background checked
dynamic camera unchecked
burn-in checked
Xtreme burn-in checked
Post FX checked

then start the whole thing with the button "Burn-In Test"

what program are u using to overclock?

thanks in advance!

cheers

 

I get ya I re-ran w/ 8x AA for ten mins. Had to drop shader/core down a little. Hit 81c that time

It won't let me check all those options at the same time??

Using NVIDIA Inspector NVIDIA Inspector 1.9.5.5 Available - 3D Tech News, Pixel Hacking, Data Visualization and 3D Programming - Geeks3D.com

 

pretty awesome temps u got going there! what kinda thermal paste are u using? IC diamond? it lets u check all options as long as u leave "dynamic camera" unchecked!

cheers

 

I'll re run tests in a few mins. With those options checked. Then I'll rerun all the benchmarks and add PCMark vantage, and 3Dmark 11.

Yeah, ICD7 prolly will run the test another time with Fn+1, then again with Fn+1 and my notebook cooler on hi. Just to compare

 

good stuff, looking forward to the results so u ARE using a notebook cooler then?

 

no, i'm not.. everything done so far is with it just sitting on my desk


AND. idk what's goin on, but the few times i've just tried to run furmark after adjusting the clocks, the gpu is running it's clocks really low.
core: 73mhz
mem: 324mhz
and i see now that its only running at .85v. wonder why, i'm plugged in

edit: fixed it. installed Atmosk's newest drivers. apparently this happens when your drivers fail and dont revert?

edit2: i give up for now lol.. i was doin the mem and the core/shader clocks separately, and i get the max for the memory clocks at 1760mhz before furmark freaks. for the core/shader i can't go past 625/1250mhz (?) before i get a system freeze and i have to do a hard restart. (it runs fine at 625/1250 though).

when i try to do 625/1250/1760 i freeze, and i have to hold down the power button.

other times furmark just crashes. it's random..? make i have a bad install of furmark? gpu temps got up to a max of 87c before something would freeze/crash, so i know temps are good.

 

aaah okay, that sounds more like it i can get my card up to 640 / 1280 / 1640 stable, but not more without gettin a freeze. its not a bad install of furmark, but u finally got both the clocks and the settings straight. try lowering ur memory clocks, that should do the trick! now i understand why ur clocks were stable and ur temps low even at those high OC settings, since u only ran the furmark benchmark without burn-in modes. and adding to that the downclocking of the card to its high 2D state @73/324 Mhz it makes sense that ur temps wouldnt go past 80C

and yeah, the card has a total of three different clock states: low 2D/idle at like 50/100 Mhz, high 2D/active idle at around 75/325 Mhz and 3D mode at full clocks. in the first two states it automatically undervolts to .85V to save power and only goes up to 1V when in 3D mode, not matter if ure plugged in or not.

cheers

 

good to know. kinda disappointing though.

going to have to work on those numbers more sometime in the future.

 

well what did u expect with a 100W graphics card thats maxxing out the PSU with 215W!!! (peak wattage i measured under furmark & Prime95) when OCed just 10%?

cheers

 

hey guys, if anyone is interested in squeezing a bit more power out of his 485M, i found a BIOS tweaked to a core voltage of 1.03V instead of the standard 1.00 V in 3D mode

heres the download link: 485M 1.03V BIOS

flash with NvFlash!

Enjoy! and keep us posted on ur OC results!

 

you try it first lol

 

new 3d mark champ for 485/2720

Result

 

haha im planning to ^^ will come back with the results once i get around to it

is that u or just a result u stumbled upon?

cheers

 

so whats the max core clock u guys can run pass 3d vantage/11?(stock votage)
i will upgrade to 485m sli this weekend and try the 1.03v bios

 

你可以自己多加測試嘛！洋人超頻往往太狠，考慮到顯卡體質，還是別直接套用。

我測試自己的gtx470m，會遇到各種問題，超顯存太高，或是主頻太高，機器都會直接重新啟動——我是w860cu。而cpu如果超頻太過份，就會藍屏。

我覺得找到一個穩定且高效的頻率並不容易，你應該多試，目前我的470顯卡，675/1600/1350就是穩定的，因為我的電源適配器也只有150瓦，極致超頻對我來說並不現實。

希望你入手485之後，能夠深耕超頻性能。
以下，是我的470超頻結果，確實性能提高了一些，但建議適可而止，朋友！
保守估計485應該是3d11-p3200/3d-vantage-p-gpu-14000/win7-7.7-7.7
(SLI時，win7評分，不超頻已經7.9/7.9，大陸x7200玩家已經測試過







some 485 users give us a pretty-good overclock score
485 is the top1 GPU in notebook world
but 470 is 288 cuda-cores , not 336 ! so 470 must be overclocked ,
because 470's performance is lower , even can't play some new games !

please use 3d-11 / 3d-vantage / win7 scores to show the ability of 485
though w860cu can't equip 485 , I hope gtx570m can be tested some day , hope 570 will passed on my old machine .

 

dayum, thats gonna be a BEAST!

 

覺得470M可超性很高說,他用跟485一模一樣的供電模組,沒閹割/空焊
......希望能抽到雕體質

 

thats me
here's a run from just now. bit lower though
Result

my ram shows up as 2 crucial sticks and a samsung, thats how i prove its me

 

not bad! being able to do a 3DMark run doesnt mean its stable tho. could easily happen that ur system crashes or freezes up during gaming sessions. thats why i test stability with furmark, since it gives u the maximum stress / worst case scenario

cheers

 

Yeah, I've learned this thanks to you lol.. We're comparing 3Dmark scores though, not 3Dmark w/stable extreme burn-in furmark run scores

 

a 485M with extra voltage should be able to hit 16k GPU in Vantage if overclocked to 730mhz core.

 

Result

mine at 700mhz core, 1800mhz memory, no extra voltage

 

I wish we had a similar thread for the 2920XM. There is an eery lack of reviews/results on overclocking the 2920XM. Anyone knows why is that?

 

yah....anyone have 2920xm??
with turbo boost 2.0 the 2920xm can run 4core8thread all 100% load @3.2ghz(stock setting)
but after 0.5~1hour full load the heat and power draw force it down clock to stock 2.5ghz

this is the 2920xm @4.5ghz in special chassis(not laptop)

 

interesting! how would you even go about overclocking mobile sandy bridge CPUs???

noice, keep it up, lets see how far we can push this beast

cheers

 

only the 2920 will overclock and only the 8170 has bios that will let you OC I believe.. Assumed to be coming to the 8150 since it supports the 2920 as well..?

yessir lol

 

Any results from the flashing/OC? Im guessing there are many people anxiously waiting

 

you could use throttlestop

 

using it already, only works on forcing the powersaving state on the cpu (even on full stress), but doesnt work for overclocking, unfortunately!

and was talking about the 485M @beast

well of course, naturally, since the 2920xm has an open multiplier and the 8170 has the XMP enabled BIOS (also supports RAM OC btw), but i was talking about (possible) alternative ways to overclock! like upping the QPI link for example or ocing the FSB ^^

doing a big LAN session with a buddy this weekend! so ill probably get around to trying it out next week (if uni allows me ^^)

cheers

 

if youre using it on your machine you cant as you need unlocked multipliers or a pll register to use it.
if you mean it doesnt support the 2920xm yet, then we will just have to wait for drwebb to add sandybridge to his list.
you can pm unclewebb if throttlestop will be able to support sb in the future..

edit:
he says it does support 2920xm

it would be nice if the OP could collate all posted o/c info in the first thread; including a short list of systems specs, driver info, and max stable o/c.
since only a few have posted results it shouldnt be too hard.

 

thats exactly what i said in my post

cheers

 

ah missed that line. thanks for pointing it out...

 

i meant to do this from the beginning but the thing got off topic so much i figured it would just die off.. i will try to get on this later tonight though .

 

i think as more people get their units the more interested they will be with this thread.
i know i am

 

ok.......back to 485m
i flashed to 1.03v bios and core 730mhz is my max
when @740 and higher 3dmark will pop out flickering stars/snow and things goes wrong
btw my 485ms also can do core 700 memory 1600with stock 1.00v........not bad of their potential

 

so what benchmark scores do you get with this o/c

 

Question: For those of you overclocking (or not) & using MSI afterburner, can you make a fan profile just as you can on desktops?

 

I have tried creating a fan profile, but I don`t think I got it to work as intended.

 

Hey, thanks for checking man, I appreciated that response. I use afterburner on my desktop, and have it set up so both my 580's stay under 70*c

I wonder if you can also under-volt these puppies. I know this is the OC thread, but some might like to know if they can under-volt for cooler idle temps before going all out on their overclocks in games.

 

breakthrough 30k with [email protected]

can also find physx on 33k in result search

 

oh you dont have the 485m i see. but good scores!


edit: my bad, i think you swapped out your 480 sli in your sig for 485's

 

updated first post

 

nicely done mate!

 

jaybee83
whats your vantage score on stock clocks?

 

woot! cracked the 3600 bracket on 3dmark 11

got 3639 result

in case you're wondering, it only took me 32 tires of various combinations of clocks to get this score lol

 

score at stock clocks is around 15100 points

lol, u definitely have more time on ur hands than i do but its nice to see what the 485m is capable of

btw, in ur Futuremark link it states that ure using Forceware version 270.61? is that correct or just a typo? cuz afaik the newest version would still be 270.51? (regularly checking on laptopvideo2go.com)

edit: nvm, just found the thread here

cheers

 

yup.. thats the perk of being away at college lol

270.61..

this new firmware is getting higher scores than 370.51, but it's not stable at as high of clocks as like 270.51 was.. kinda weird, but i guess it's an improvement

 

im still waiting in high anticipation for NiBiTor to support the 485M BIOS! that way i can flash the card with my desired downclock@idle and overclock@3D clocks and voltages!
