Anyone ever flash/overclock a Powercolor 9500 Pro?

I'm thinking of doing this to mine, however if I see that anyone had any problems with it... I'm not doing it. Can't afford a new vid card.

It's a Powercolor Radeon 9500 Pro, red pcb, memory arranged in a straight line, Infinion 3.3ns chips.


And input?

Overclock the card! if it burns out you have the warranty to fall back on just dont tell the company that you were overclocking, but dont flash the bios if you cant afford a new card I heard horror stories people killing their cards by flashing its bios and it also voids your warranty

Er... it's not overclockable as it is now. In order to OC I have to either flash the BIOS, or use the Omega drivers... which is what I want to do. So I want to know how the Omega drivers behave with this card, and if it's possible to overclock with them.

I don't know who started this romour, but the Omega drivers can't enable overclocking! You need to bios flash your card with the warp11 bios, then you must install an overclocking program seperate of the Omega drivers because the included version of Radclocker is broken and won't keep your clock rate changes.
