GT220 overclock Sunday, May 09, 2010 2:18 PM (permalink)
I have a GT220 atm and until I get my GTS250 PC I wana get the best out of this little guy.
If anyone here has a GT220, how far did you manage to overclock it?
I got mine to 666 core, 420 memory and 1447 shader. I don't want to try to push it any further since I fried my old 7900GS for pushing it to far.
If anyone got a higher stable overclock, go ahead and post it.

    I don't have a 220 and can't tell you about the oc for it. But, OC'ing a EVGA card will not void your warranty. So have at it my friend.
    Specs:
    i7 930 @ 3.6
    Patriot Inferno 60gb SSD
    Spinpoint F3 1tb HDD
    ASUS SaberTooth X58
    SLI EVGA GTX 570 HD
    ANTEC 750 WATT PSU
    KINGSTON HYPER-X 1600mhz 3x4 gb

      Keep in mind that you are trying to overclock a graphics card that was built for a minimum power requirement of 300W and 18A, the lowest of power requirements.  The card might not be able to pull in additional power to sustain a high overclock.

        So, I followed your advice and overclocked it further. And I've noticed that from a point, the more I overclock it, the lower my fps is in games. But just my fps goes down. The heat is still at about 45 - 48 C when I play something and there are no artifacts in games.
        So is the fps drop normal if I overclock it to much?
