Highest GeForce4 MX440 Clock?

[a c i d.f l y]

I'm curious what would be a half decent overclock for a GeForce4 MX440.

Standard is: gpu 250mhz, ram 500mhz

..is it completely illogical to try and run it at 300/534 without excess cooling on a regular basis? I mean, the board itself has a decent sink and fan on it... and it isn't like I'm overclocking excessively..? Right?

Ven0m's temperature test:
- if it looks to be too hot, don't touch it - it's too hot
- if ther's on card part that when you touch it, your skin remains on VGA, it's too hot (once my card hasn't passed this test - ouch)
- you should be able to hold finger on any part on card for about 5 seconds or more - it's cold enough then :)
- it doesn't apply to new ATi cards, where you can get injuried even without serious OC
- this temp. guide is not a joke.

My MX440 came at 270/400, but I had it up to 390/480 on the desktop, and 380/480 in games.

My MX440 has only the heatsink, should I get a fan too before trying to oc it?

Well, it runs fine. No detection of errors or anything so I guess I'm clean. The sink on my gpu has a fan, however the ram does not. But my version of the card came with some pretty beefy ram.

My real world tests haven't failed as yet (CnC:Generals, WC3, NFSUnderground).
