Overclocking factory-clocked cards have for long, been very much of a taboo issue amongst veteran overclocking enthusiasts. Limited headroom from the preset clocks have always rendered overclocked gaphics accelerators poor value for money amongst those who tweak down to the last stable MHz. Worse of all, many factory overclocked graphics accelerators are in fact not speed-binned at all. Let's see what the Eagle and Vvikoo can squeeze out of their two slots.

Eagle overclocked.

Vvikoo overclocked.

The Eagle has a significantly higher Vgpu than the Vvikoo, or the Sparkle 8800GT and P393 variants. The poorer overclocking on the Eagle boils down to a poorer batch of G92 chipset, and possibly a less capable cooling system. Due to the larger size of memory buffer on the Vvikoo, the memory clocks scaled lower as expected. Memory bandwidth is still sufficient for the core and shader clocks we obtained, however. The Vvikoo is a clear winner in the overclocking department, whilse the Eagle remains undecided until their appearance in the market. Either way, both designs have proven their worth at being better overclockers than any P393 8800GT, with better cooling, and higher chipset voltages.

Watch those numbers, however, for instability could set in!
