| 13166 | 2001-05-25 14:55:00 | my ge force2 mx comes with a tweaking device to allow overclocking.How safe is it to alter the defeault settings without causing damage. or can i safely overcloick the card ? | Guest (0) | ||

| 13168 | 2001-05-26 11:20:00 | Hi George If the tweaking utility came with the card( in the software provided)you should have no worries. The manufacturer would have made sure the card is capable of the max setting. It,s only when you use third party tweak utilites, that you should be careful,as they go much higher. rgds Boris |

| 13169 | 2001-05-26 14:15:00 | strange...the factory and third party overclocking uilities i have allow the same core and clock speeds as the stock nvidia overclocking ulility. | Guest (0) | ||
| 13170 | 2001-05-26 18:34:00 | I agree with tweak'e. Overclocking is always a risk. If the manufacturer was sure the card could perform reliably at a higher speed, surely they would have made it that way (with an option to slow it down if required). I would also check out how overclocking will effect you warranty. | Guest (0) | ||
