Well having got my x1900 and installing it I was already tempted by a little bit of overclocking but coming from an x800 background i have been thrown by the little quirks of the x1k series when it comes to overclocking - votages, changing clocks in 2d/3d mode etc. - too many unknowns for me to start fiddling with an expensive piece of hardware whilst my ignorance is so prevelent.
So I come to ask if any could help me with a quick "Idiots guide" as to the best way to overclock the card and the best tools to use.
My initial questions are:
How do i overclock the card outside of CCC?
Is it safe to raise the voltages (and is it even possible?)?
IS it best to have the card at a set speed all of the time rather than letting it flick between 3d anbd 2d mode (nothing that come tomorrow it will be watercooled)
Thanks in advance
