QUOTE(frags @ Dec 9 2007, 07:22 PM) Here's the deal...regardless of what others say...You shouldn't really OC a 3850 if you are using the stock cooling...seriously...thats just asking for trouble ESPECIALLY if you are playing Crysis! i Overclocked my memory clock to like 890Mhz and was having black outs after 1 1/2 in Crysis(when i had none when it wasnt overclocked and 3 hours+ of playing Crysis)...now i just moved it all back down... Seriously apart from getting playable performance...the numbers are just irrelevant...dont try to get too greedy...  dont push your luck knowing that this 3850 full load oledi hot at 92c if u o/c it, cant imagine.  |
