Right after untold messing I have got my card overclocked.
Using ATi Tool, overclocker.exe and no CCC
The step by Step process:
  1. Installed Omega 6.3 driver suite.
  2. Disabled the 2 ATi services, ATi Smart and ATi Hotkey.
  3. Rebooted ( Overdrive tab is no longer available )
  4. Installed ATi Tool (0.0.25 beta10).
  5. Set clock speed 675/783 with Overclock.exe, I entered 680/790 and OC.exe set it to 675/783 (using a divider setting?)
  6. Ran ATiTool and set voltage to 1.4 and set up a profile to bootup with.

I ran ATi Tool 3D for 5 hours no artifacts, ran 3Dmark05 and picked up 800 points. Now @10049

The turning point was disabling the overdrive services, this was crucial to my overclock. I wish I had found out about this at the beginning


thats all very good but without the use of ATI tools artifact scanning and "find max core/mem" theres no way to tell if your card can handle this, simply wacking the speeds up there and playing a game isnt enough, you could be artifacting and not know it and then one day... *pop* :(
