Oc'ing 9700 gts

I dont want to sound dumb but how do I over-clock a 9700 gts? Do I need to disassemble the laptop or do I do it with software? Im a newb at these things sorry but I need to know so I can do it with my x305 once I get it. I would atleast like to play Crysis on high settings.

read my thread for tips and info on how to overclock a x305.

 

You will be lucky to play Crysis on all high at full resolution, even overclocked.

 

Really? A 9600 can run Crysis with some high settings and most at very high getting a FPS of about 14-19 FPS non OC. Maybe im wrong but ive seen it on youtube.

 

And when ur reading my thread, try 700/1000/1800 overclocks. dont try to go really any higher, it is unstable. at these clocks, it is 99.8% stable. the shader was originally 1325, so a 475 increase is sick.

 

so with that kind of upgrade what kind of card would that be similar to?

 

definitely a 9800M GTS, maybe a 9800M GT.

 

Dude how long can you leave the clocks like that without getting into trouble? I game for like 8 hour sessions before I actually get of the comp. Maybe 4 hours a title then surf for 30 min then load another title for the next 4 hours, then I put the comp to sleep to get back into real life. I wouldn't want to always have to reenter the clocks each time I load up a game. What's your experience with your gaming sessions and how long?

 

well, as in my thread i stated that you can save profiles and load them up by pressing key commands such as CTRL ALT H and the profiles will pop up and u can load them. also u can just go to performance in nvidia system tools 6.03. plus, i suggest only loading the clocks when u are playing a game. so say ur gonna be on for 2 hours but not play a game, dont load the clocks. and dont load them at startup. so far ive played with those clocks for 2 hours straight and it has been completely stable and the gpu temps never went above 157 with hw monitor. i suggest 650/950/1750 for the safest clocks for 8 hours man. dont push it too far.

 

is that temp on a cooler that reduces the temp alot?

 

I use ATITools to overclock my dual 8600mGT's. It has built in stability testing and automatically ramps up speeds to find the maximum safe settings.

 

nope, it is with stock cooling.

 

I wish mine could be that low temp

 

make sure you clean regularly (vacuum and compressed air). My machine will hit gpu temps of 105C in only a few months if I don't (with stock clocks)

 

I would do but i just bought the thing and its already hitting the boiling point figure. Hate to think what itll be like when a bit of dust gets built up. lol
