ECS A785GM-M Motherboard Review

Overclocking

ECS A785GM-M provides some overclocking options, including:

• GPU internal clock: Between 150 MHz and 2000 MHz in 1 MHz increments.
• CPU voltage: From +15 mV to +165 mV in 15 mV increments.
• Memory controller (CPU NB) voltage: From +5 mV to +75 mV in 5 mV increments.
• Memory voltage: From +10 mV to +150 mV in 10 mV increments.
• South bridge (SB) voltage: From 1.20 V to 1.35 V in 0.05 V increments.
• Full memory timings configuration.

We could increase the CPU base clock to 249 MHz with stability, a 24.5% increase (which translated into a 9.5% performance increase in 3DMark06) and a better level than we’ve achieved with Biostar TA785GE 128M (219 MHz). We didn’t play with voltages or any advanced configuration, so you with more time and patience may be able to achieve better results.
