Overclocking the GeForce GTX 470

Overclocking GeForce GTX 470

Above, you can see the overclocked results for Resident Evil 5, same image quality settings as before, in DX10 mode. Blue is the default test session we showed you, and then in red the overclocked results.

Original This sample Overclocked
Core Clock: 607MHz Core Clock: 607MHz Core Clock: 726MHz
Shader Clock: 1215MHz Shader Clock: 1215MHz Shader Clock: 1452MHz
Memory Clock: 3348MHz Memory Clock: 3348MHz Memory Clock: 3568MHz

Much like its bigger brother, the GTX 470 can overclock very decently. We fired off extra cooling by increasing fan RPM, voltage changes are not (yet) possible.

And again, let's do one more benchmark, this time with Battlefield Bad Company 2:

Above, the GTX 470 overclocked. This is Battlefield Bad Company 2, still at DX11 - 8xAA / 16xAF and all settings at maximum. As you can see, even with so much horsepower under the hood, we can get performance up quite a bit.
