8800GTX Factor Overclocked Verification?

My computer came with a "factory overclocked" 768mb 8800GTX. If there a tool
to see what (memory/gpu) it is really clocked at? I'm not interested in
changing any clock settings. I just was to see how it is setup spec-wise.

ATI Tool from www.guru3d.com will do that. It will also overclock an Nvidia
card although the "automatic" functions do not work. My two EVGA
Superclocked cards were set to 621-core and 1025-memory. If you use NV Tune,
the default factory clock speeds are shown and not the actual manufacturer's
overclocked settings. I find it a useless PIA app IMO.

Funny, it shows the correct default factory settings on my BFG OC2 8800
GTS (i.e. the manufacturers pre overclock).

But guru3d site said that ATI Tool (=ATI Tray Tools ??) is for Radeon cards
only.

So, no definite way to see the factory overclocked final specs of my card?

The ATITool reads (and controls) my eVGA 8800GTS just fine.
I suggest you give it a try.

Do you not have nTune? If so get it. Under Performance, in the left pane,
(after you accept the agreement) there will be a 'Adjust GPU Settings'.
Clicking on that lets you overclock but it will display the Factory shipped
clocked frequencies (no overclocking) by default. Clicking on 'Custom clock
frequencies lets you have at her.

nTune is available on the Nvidia site.

Thanks. I ran Nvidia nTune today just to see the comparison between the
default Nvidia 8800GTX and the Gateway factory overclocked EVGA version that
came in my rig. Here are the results:

nTune (Evga 768mb 8800GTX - Gateway factory overclocked)

GPU co 600mhz
(8800gtx default nvidia spec: 575mhz)

GPU memory: 925mhz
(8800gtx default nvidia spec: 900mhz)
