Tutorial: How To Overclock Nvidia Geforce GTS 450 1GB
Before We Start
Before we start the overclocking process, first we need to check whether the PC is running smoothly. Use GPU-Z to monitor the temperature and frequencies of your card. After that you can run a software called stress-test. If your graphics card’s frequencies go down or any temperature exceeds more than 70 degrees either the cooler isn’t attached properly or there may be more serious issues.
Next you should download the latest driver from NVIDIA’s website and install it. If u want u can back up your data before overclocking, but I recommend that u should back up the data.
Actually What Is Overclocking ?
GPUs are very complicated processors, and as such, AMD and NVIDIA have to set a conservative default frequency in order to produce sufficient quantities to meet the demand of hit price points. This means that there is a hidden strength which can be unlocked.
Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti
The new Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti does’nt stay far from its older brothers, GTX 580 and 570. The GF114 core is a reworking of the GF110 and its changes echo those made to last year’s GTX 460. Instead of GTX 580’S four and the GTX 570’s three graphics processing cluster’s otherwise known as GPC with 32 stream processors each, the new GTX 560 Ti uses 48 strong GPCs with a core clocked at 822MHz. The shader clock is a very high 1,640MHz and the 1GB of GDDR5 memory runs at a speed of 4,000MHz.
The fusion of higher clock speeds, reorganized stream processors and efficient transistors pushed the GTX 560 Ti to score high!. Its average is 40fps in our 1920x1080 Very High Quality Crysis test. That’s 8fps behind the GTX 570, and only 3fps behind the ATI Raedon HD 6950 £20 more. This Cool gadget also managed to score 32fps with 8x anti-aliasing, before storming through our just cause 2 test. An average of 65fps in the 1920x1080 Very High test with 8x anti-aliasing is 20fps faster than HD 6950.
The GTX 560 Ti stays cool and quiet with a decent idle temperature of 43°C that rose to 78ÂșC at peak.
The place where Nvidia scores higher than ever is in their pricing. They prices it at 203 pounds inc VAT, it’s cheaper than its rivals HD 6950 & HD6970 which costs around
