Re: Problems overclocking Asus 8600gt, PSU problem?

I dont know the first thing about modding so a vmod is risky as I will probably end up frying the card. A new psu is a more likely route for me. Will a new quality psu solve my oc issue or is the lack of a power connector on the card the real issue, so a new psu won't make any difference?

Cooling is fine never goes above 62 degrees. I doubt that is a thermal issue as its got a good quality copper fin cooler. I still do not get how my psu can't push 75W to my pci-e slot. If I remember correctly this is what the pci-e slot can provide.

Problems overclocking Asus 8600gt, PSU problem?

From reviews that I have seen this card was able to reach core speeds of 670Mhz - 690Mhz stable, and a memory clock of 880Mhz from 540/700 :) . My problem is that I cant get it past 610/790 :( (RivaTuner) without stability issues. ...
