Overclocked HD3650
Posted: Fri Mar 07, 2008 4:00 am
I recently put together a new system with an Asus HD3650 video card.
Out of the box this card runs at 725MHz GPU clock and 800MHz (1600) memory clock.
I installed a fanmate because the fan on the card was too loud to my liking, now I can barely hear it.
I overclocked the card to 910MHz GPU frequency and 1090MHz (2180) memory frequency. I'm getting a score of 5880 in 3Dmark06.
In Everest I get temps of 36-40 idle and 52-60 under 99% load.
Off course the fan keeps spinning slowly because of the fanmate.
As far as I'm aware these temps aren't too high for this card.
Can I keep running the card at these clocks or are the temps too high and will it damage the card?
