Noam AA Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 So, it's not the first time i see this strange number at first, it was when i bought this card, the osx animation sometimes became lagy, so i searched for an overclock app for mac os, and although i haven't found a bunch of apps, i found one, called Zeus, there, i got this weird clock rate = -8589935.000 MHz so, i figured it must be the app thats wrong, cause i didn't found much about overclocking gpu on osx. today i found another one "nvclock" the reading in this app is -2147483.750 MHz, also strange number. while on the topic from which i polled this app(ProjectOSX forum), i saw a bunch of people getting right clock readings. now after installing the newest nvidia drivers from tonymac nvidia update(and also the nvidia update) the animation have no lag when no open-gl demanding software is in the background (when i open audio analyzer for my audio work, things like stacks, spaces, and various osx animation start to lag) i was hoping to at least try overclocking, but i don't want to do anything the will fry it right in the place, since the clock reading is ridicules, anyone have any clue where can i fix this? thanx everyone and if it help, here is the output from both apps Zeus Unhandled init script entry with id '0x8c' at 0xd6b5 Unhandled init script entry with id '0x8c' at 0xd6b5 -- General info -- Card: GT216 [GeForce GT 220] Architecture: GA5 A2 PCI id: 0x0a20 Subvendor id: 0x3842 GPU clock: -8589935.000 MHz Bustype: PCI-Express -- Shader info -- Clock: -8589935.000 MHz Stream units: 48 (00000011b) ROP units: 8 (00000011b) -- Memory info -- Amount: 1024 MB Type: 128 bit DDR3 Clock: -8589935.000 MHz -- PCI-Express info -- Current Rate: 16X Maximum rate: 16X -- Sensor info -- Sensor: G84 GPU Internal Sensor GPU temperature: 44C -- VideoBios information -- Version: 70.16.2e.00.02 Signon message: GT216 P681 SKU 0001 VGA BIOS ( VB1 ) VID mask: 14 Voltage level 0: 0.01V, VID: 0 Voltage level 1: 0.00V, VID: 22 Voltage level 2: 0.00V, VID: 0 Nvclock -- General info -- Card: Unknown Nvidia card Architecture: GA5 A2 PCI id: 0x0 GPU clock: -2147483.750 MHz Bustype: PCI -- Memory info -- Amount: 1024 MB Type: 128 bit SDR Clock: -2147483.750 MHz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
