Did you know that you can also boost your Nvidia graphics... or any sort of graphics card by overclocking your following graphic card components:
Core clock Memory clock You must note that the core clock value is ALWAYS lower than the memory clock value. For example, my core clock is 300 MHz while my memory clock is 450 MHz. Yes, I know, my graphics card sucks... but I got it for $150. I think I got ripped off!! Anyway, is there anyone who knows where to put this code in? Or is this code just for linux systems? Whenever I try to put this code in the command prompt, it turns up with an error. Someone help me with this problem or just tell me how and where to put the code in. I really need to boost my NVidia card to play my Battlefield 2 properly... |

This tweak can be done to any Operating System, however the method of applying the tweak may vary from kernel to kernel.
this guide was for the Linux kernel Ive not tried, but i assume the code should work exactly the same with other kernels like the FreeBSD UNIX kernel. What error message do you get ? post it here. maybe the instructions need tweaking a little for different distro's EDIT: OOps, i think i may have forgotten to mention that you need to be a super user to run some of those commands, try running CODE su - <root passowrd> before you enter the commands that cause the error. EDIT2: I have tried experimenting with overclocking the graphics card, i didnt notice any change in performance. but i wasnt willing to over volt the card. overclocking is only good for shortening your hardwares life. i dont recomend putting such epensive hardware at risk. |
