With this new single PCB design the Mushkin UltimateFX GTX 295 has already shown itself to be a very cool runner. Let’s see how it clocks.

I used NVidia's own onboard control panel to adjust the GPU clocks - it managed the following clocks:


GPU-Z.

Core Clock - 576MHz to 674MHz
Memory Clock - 1008MHz to 1211MHz
Shader Clock - 1242MHz to 1453MHz

I then tested the cards 3DMark performance:


3DMark06.


Vantage @ 1280.


Vantage @ 1680.


Vantage @ 1920.

Then i finally tested the performance increase in some of the games already benched:


Bioshock.


Call Of Duty 4.


Colin McRea DiRT.


Far Cry 2.

As you can see there's a fairly healthy increase across the board. If you ever need the extra performance it's nice to have it available. I also noted that temperatures only rose very slightly and the card remained fairly quiet through all gaming tests.
