how far to push a gf3 ti500

Post by ed_fubes »

I have a MSI gf3 ti500, clocked at 240/500 at defult. I came with a heatsink fan + mem. heatsinks. I'm just wonderin with the factory coolin hardware, how far should/could I oc it before heat may become an issue. I just want to know if its really neccessary to change the fan to a crystal orb, or would the factory stuff be able to hold their own.

i know that isn't real high but it is stable at that speed.
