Q: using socket? It allows you to adjust the core / memory UNsyncronizely!

Re:Must you have to pay for powerstrip to get overclocking? I have the free one and don't see overclocking options. Didn't search too carefully though…
Core Power For Baseball
Re:I *HAD* a Radeon VIVO that did 215 with no artifacting, and no ramsinks, or even a heatsink fan on the chip. The only cooling was a home-made card cooler. BUT I was putting ram sinks on it and got arctic silver on the ram leads.
:(:(:(:(:( ITs somewhere between Bestbuy and ATI's RMA line now. I really liked that card. I also had a VIVO that wouldn't do a mhz over 204. 204 was fine no artifacting rock solid all that. BUT 205 would cause MASS artifacting in 2d. Green lines EVERYWHERE. But I sold that one to a buddy, and am hoping my next one will do around 220 with the ram sinks I ahve for it. Since when can you clock the gpu/mem separate?????? AS I remember it the latest powerstrip had them connected.

Improve Memory Today With The Memory Recharger
Re:Umm… Ok here goes:
The Radeon's bottleneck is the memory not the core. If you increase the memory you may get a 5-10% boost in performance at 32bit running 800×600 or above. Increasing the core will do absolutely nothing, except disapate more heat. If you have increased your core speed and you "feel" that your games are running faster it must be a physicological thing because it actually does no such thing.
Leave your core at the default 166mhz, 183 if you have the VIVO. Bump your memory to 200 and adjust as needed until you recieve no artifacts in gameplay.
Tips and Secrets for a Better Memory
Re:Yes actually in my second computer I've got a Radeon 32 DDR running at 205, nice and peachy fast. No guarantee's you wont have problems though, I doubt it though.
