Tomorrow NVIDIA will unveils G92-8800GTS, so before that we find a retail version of Zotac 8800GTS 512MB and have a stock cooler OC test. Because Rivatuner V2.06 do not recognize G92-8800GTS , we have to use nTune. Before overclocking we adjust stock fan to full speed.
Till now nTune still don’t have option for shader standalone overclock. If the software have that option we think the score can get even higher.
