Thats funny got a second card??? LOL Wanna trade
On a separate note.... I guess this as good as time as any to dive in to a GTX 680 conversation.....
I am noticing everyone posting their screen shots with their clocks and overclocks. I would love to do that but for some reason.... my clocks don't represent correctly in GPU-Z. Here's what I mean....
Under the main tab it reads:
Base Clock: 1006
Boost Clock: 1059 >Just like everyone else.
But my cards (because of Nvidia's Boost technology) Actually run at
Base Clock:1006
Boost Clock: 1124 >No I did not flash the BIOS
It shows the correct higher Clocks under the GPU-Z Sensors Tab
It also shows the correct higher clocks under EVGA On Screen Display, EVGA Precision X and half a dozen other monitoring programs....
But it does not show the correct clocks (Stock or While Overclocked) under GPU-Z Main Tab
I am fairly confident that the higher clocks are correct.... (because several other programs are showing the higher clocks.) I have also heard and read that just because Nvidia says the GTX 680's clocks are 1006 and 1059 that does not mean that people won't receive cards that actually run higher then Nvidia's Minimum clocks. (As long as your card stays under Nvidia's thermal limit your cards can keep in creasing by so many MHZ)
It's just frustrating I can't show my real overclock as easily....If you look at GPU-z Main page it will show a
Boost clock of 1220Mhz (When in reality)
its a boost clock of 1285Mhz
Like I said I have talked with overs in other forums experiencing this... and I am sure I have figured out why.... but is anyone else here at TPU experiencing something like this?.
, as I am saving up for a GTX 680 and I have the same case as you, would you recommend me do the same and what tools did you use pls
