Post 9600XT clock speeds

applebyk

Just wondering what speeds are attainable, so I can sort of get an average. If you use ramsinks / different GPU cooler, please say so, and tell me how/what you used to cool it.

currently at 570/335
i know the core will go higher..but im going to keep this card for awhile so im not going past 570.

and from what i have read, 335 is pushing it on the memory, although it has no problems or artifacts.

once again..i plan on keeping this until 2005 anyways, so i see no need to push it any further.

all on stock cooling..and it never goes over 43-44 degrees while gaming, and will hit 48+ with an ati demo going.

i have heard some ppl have luck going over 600 on the core..il try that the day i have my next gen card in my hands heh.


***edit*** after reading this post and thinking about it for awhile, i decided to take off the dress and really test my card out, results on ati tool were 590 core and 351 memory before it picked up any artifacts..so i bumped it back to 580/345 and punished it for awhile and it held up just fine. of course its a little warmer now..but still idle's under 40 degrees(thats what open cases and box fans are for right? )***edit***
