Help on overclocking graphic card
-
i'm using nvidia 7300 128mb. i heard that it can be overclock to have more memory space.. need some help over here...
btw, i'm on a laptop, acer one. and would the warranty be void if i overclock the graphic card? -
The warranty wouldn't be void if you overclock your graphics card. But it's not my fault if you damage your graphics card.
You can adjust the overclock settings in the BIOS. -
i know.. but just like that adjust?
-
ya. juz like dat.

i'm using acer tm3270 series. my bios they put there 128mb, but it's unselectable... how to make it enable for me to overclock?

Hmmm, i think that you're supposed to disable a few safety checks and up the voltages. I'm not an expert and since it's a lappy, it's a bit more tricky.
In there some where there's(that i know of) a CPU, Motherboard and internal heat sensors, fail safe to prevent ur comp from melting in case of overheating.
IF im not wrong, step 1 involves disabling those fail safe, THEN you up the voltage. But if its a lappy (Chances are base on the model, it's a poly lappy.), it already have a heat issues. I think you also can save BIOS setting too, since i dont think you can flip the CMOS jumper if you did something wrong.
There's a limit OEM heatsink/fans can do though, look out for the "usual suspects"(I.E blue screen of death.
).
Why u wanna overclock ur gpu, lappy some more? Playing GRAW2?
-
haha. nope. i wanna play spiderman3, cos the graphic now is a bit laggy.. so wana try overclock a bit higher to see if it help..
anw, where's the safe heat thing located, bios? -
Hmm, you have to press F8 during startup, but it's quite advanced. You try using RivaTuner first ba... it a programme designed to enable you to tweak and monitor mainly nvidia GPU(it does support ATI, only recently). I think nvidia also have a native overclock function somewhere in forceware....
