Overclocking question

G'day, i've just recently soft modded my ati 9800 SE 256 to a 9800 PRO using the Omega driver. I've got a decent cooling setup so i was just curious what the recommended/safe maximum level I can overclock the card to is?

My system specs are: AMD Athlon 2500+, 1Gb RAM, decent motherboard.

Cheers

use a program called ATI tool to test out the max memory and core overclocks. You can search for it on google and d/l it for free.

WELCOME MATE, this question could best be answered in the tech forums, but just a note, if your running cool and stable right now with incremental increases in memory and chip then I would be conservative especially when your gaming, I prefer quality rather than FPS or artficial benchmarks, for me its all about the experience. You can also P.M. Neon Cowboy about some of these questions for a start, he loves to push the envelope on hardware...LOL..
