GTX 560ti HAWK

[chris8224]

Hello everyone,

I have recently been playing around with my 560ti by overclocking it and such.

I was just wondering what would be a good range of tests to put it through to test if it is stable.

So far i have been playing long gaming sessions on black ops, battlefield bad company 2, F1 2010 and gta iv mostly, i have run fur mark for a few hours and also the unigine heaven benchmarks for a few hours.

If there are any others i should run or do it would be much appreciated if you could tell me

.

Thanks, Chris

Try the Lost Planet 2 benchmark. Play with the settings and then run test B...... That is a good one to stress your video card.

Folding. If it folds, it will run anything.

I use occt gpu test, if that doesnt give you any errors, nothing will

Thanks for all the replies

Can you post your OC progress please ? (temps,clocks, scores,..) I'm thinking of buying one or two myself but I might also buy the gigabyte one, so still doing some research

Mine is currently running at 1050 MHz with +150mV on vCore. (MSI Afterburner v2.2.0 Beta 4) Temp is 70°C (room temp is 29.4°C)

Deffo gonna push it harder to see what she's got...

** EDIT **

Seems FurMark isn't the tool it used to be... I ran 3D Mark 11 and it crashed at above clocks.]

Dropped clocks down to 990MHz GPU / 1100MHz Memory and dropped vCore to +100mV and all well.. (GPU temp @ 78°C)

well so far i have my card running at 1050MHz on the core using the stock volts of 1050mV normal release AB or +0 if your using AB 2.2.0 beta 4 both versions of AB throughly tested and is 100% stable (not bad on stock volts if you ask me

)

What are you using to stress your overclock??

It seems mine doesn't like too much voltage... since dropping the vCore to +100mV I have been able to push the GPU speed up to 1010MHz.... Will keep pushing

3D Mark 11 score

I am using all of the things i stated in my original post and occt, been constant testing almost all day

Looks like you have a better on yours lol. Mine doesn't want to go over 1010MHz

Hmmm it looks like you might have lost the silicon lottery this time, what driver version are you using?

Me just noticed

Also have you overclocked your vram, if you have i suggest putting it back to stock then find a stable core clock, then overclock the vram afterwards

My previous OC on this card was 990MHz Core / 1115MHz Memory so I should be oki with mem at 1100MHz.

Your post rekindled my interest in overcloking it and I'm just happy I got the GPU clock over 1GHz

 

[chris8224]

im currently going for 1100MHz on the core

Hey Critical (and anyone else who has a 560ti HAWK) whats the temps of you memory, idle and under load?
