NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT to have lots of overclocking potential?

Posted on Thursday, October 04 2007 @ 20:14 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

VR Zone heard the upcoming GeForce 8800 GT will overclock pretty good. The GPU will be clocked at 600MHz but will easily reach 700MHz.

One of the reasons for this is because NVIDIA doesn't want the GeForce 8800 GT to eat up too many sales of the more expensive GeForce 8800 GTS. Additionally, it also gives NVIDIA some more headroom in case the ATI Radeon HD 2950 PRO comes too close for comfort.

The GeForce 8800 GT will be launched on October 29th and according to NVIDIA it will score about 10769 in 3DMark06 but it's not clear on which system the card was benched.
