Diamond Viper V770 Ultra review

Nog maar weer eens een review van de V770 Ultra. Deze is van Extreme Hardware, altijd wel goede info. De drivers van de V770 zijn voorzien van een overclock slidertje, waarmee je de snelheid in vijf stappen kunt variëren tussen 150/183 en 175/200MHz. Uiteraard ging ExtremeHW op zoek naar de meest optimale setting:

In overclocking testing, I was unable to get the Viper to run stable at level five [175/200MHz], although level four seemed to work fine. Turok 2 was the only game in where I ran into problems, and the problems disappeared when the overclocking was bumped down to level three. I refrained from posting overclocked benchmark results in this review for a few reasons. First of all, at EH we don't officially encourage overclocking (although we do enjoy writing overclocking disclaimers). But the main reason why comparison benchmarks were not included is because overclocking the Viper V770 Ultra never provided more than a few frames per second increase, never enough to make a substantial difference in gameplay. Furthermore, using the 1.88 NVIDIA reference drivers often nets a larger performance increase than overclocking does, and switching a driver set is far safer than overclocking. On the other hand, if you switched drivers and also overclocked....

Verder véél (QII, Unreal, Shogo, Incoming, Turok 2, SiN) benchmarks, dus check de review.
