  • Overcloking G450

    Well.. I don't have it...
    But still:
    Does it posibile?
    How far can you get?
    Genrally it supposed to be very o/cable (0.18micron...work on lower speed)
    Can you post some pics... Info or results?

      Is there some kind of NDA related to overclocking these cards or something.

      Ive been waiting for a review where they overclock one, but no luck so far.

      I would assume that a site would say they couldnt overclock it if it just wasnt a good overclocker.

      Its a conspiracy!

        How about that for luck.

        Just doing my morning surf, and found this
        http://www.trainwrecker.com/Reviews/bluorb/bluorb2.htm

        He manages to overclock a G450 to 175.5Mhz core and 140.4Mhz mem (280.4DDR)

        Doesnt say what kind of performance difference there is though. Its a heatsink review, not an overclocking review.

          That sounds really bad. I can oc my vanilla G400/16MB/DH to 166 MHz core with a simple 486 fan on the heatsink, now the G450 is a lower micron chip and thus should really go much higher.
          Of course the 280 MHz RAM are nice (I'm getting 207 at max - and this with already a few erraneous pixels popping up)
          But we named the *dog* Indiana...

            but i've heard that the g450 runs very warm already at normal speed

                It is possible to overclock G450, but it is not easy (yet) due to lack of proper tools. G450 clocking is different from G400.
                "Core to 175.5, memory to 140.4" is totally false. Memory runs not slower than 155 w/o overclocking, it could be pushed to something around 175. Core: I don't think it will run at 175, but maybe with some luck...

                Also note that clock speeds reported by G400 overclocking stuff on G450 are false!!!

                  Update: my G450 actually went higher than 175 MHz with a small fan attached. Due to some strange bottleneck in other part of my system, I am getting only > 2500 3DMarks on Duron@950.
