Max o/c for 9800 pro?

[cimetière]

Hi!

I would to o/c my 9800pro ATI card, but do not want to scrap it... As of
yet, I raised core and memory up to 20Mhz, but was too scared to go further.

As anyone has suggestion how fare I could go without having problems?

Many thanks!

412/665 MHz should be good and quite safe. These are R9800 XT clocks.

I ran mine at 432/712 to benchmark it, I usally just run at stock settings
since it is plenty fast.
Download a program called ATI Tool from majorgeeks.com and it will set up
the optimum overclock settings for you.

make sure you have above average cooling solution before commencing
with an OC.

This is from memory so I may be a little out - With the help of ATI Tool
(google for it) I was able to increase my Hercules 9800 Pro (not a
standard cooling system on this card) to 450/350 (700).

I have since set it back to standard settings. The performance gain
(unless you're into counting 3DMark numbers) didn't realy seem worth it.
