this is the overclock I get from mine with it being stable:

is this true because it beats some newer cards on core and memory frequency.
what overclocks do other people get out of their 6800s?
 
its a winfast 6800le I think. should I volt mod it, I've been getting a few freezes in games as of late so I brought down the core speed and its fixed them, should I wack the memory clock up a bit?
 
erm I can email it to you as an attachment. I cant remember the exact place I got it, I think it was deviantart or something like that.

on topic again please.:

ok I think I'm going to keep the core at 420 and wack the memory up as high as poss. how do I use ati tool to test the settings? can someone provide a dl ?
 
ok I got ati tool loaded, I set everything at default and pressed find max memory clock, it started rising etc then I think it got an atrifact yellow thing appeared, and the mem clock started crashing to near zero, so I pressed abort, the worrying thing was it got an artifact at nothing like the frequencys I normally run it at, whats happened,
at the moment its fining max core will post details later
 
ok thanks at the moment I've got the core at 420 and the mem at 898 ran Cs for ~an hour and bf1942 for 3 hours with no crashes or artifacts., I may put the memory up to 1ghz what do you lot think?
 
ok I may buy a new fan for it but to be honest I cba... can I watch for sparklies in game cuz 3d mark is boring,

If I overdo the memory and it all goes to the /******ers how do I fix it?
 
ok I put it up to 900 on the memory and I think I got sparklies

I put the mem down a bit and got a pink floor, so I'm going to have to decrease it back to 880
would an aftermarket cooler help or not?

I think I have found my highest settings for my card, kinda disapointing tho. as some people have 1ghz on memory at stock

I went into ati tool and saw that it showed my memory clock at lower than I had set it in coolbits. so I wacked it up and scanned for artis, no artis for like 5 mins temperature at 61, so I thought right lets give it a go, hit set clock, total death to screen, pandamonium I looked and say that the clock that it was showing was exactly half of the one I had set in coolbitz, why is this, anyway its all right now held the power button down and reset it all.
 
I'm thinking of pushing it a bit more tonight :p current clocks:

Core: 418
Mem: 885

will games run better if I overlock the core more or the memory

ta
 
ok
I'm going to run it a bit more with those settings + I just oced the CPU so I'll be testing that 1st, once I'm happy with that I'll start to fiddle with the core ..


thanks
