Overclocking an ASUS Radeon 9800XT.

[jEevion]

Hello, I just bought a new computer system as below:

AMD64 3200+ s939 @ 260X10.0 (2.6GHz)
MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum
OCZ Dual Channel Platinum Rev. 2 2x512mb @ 2.5-3-3-7 1T 260MHz
OCZ PowerStream 520W
ASUS Radeon 9800XT @ 430/760

I ran Aquamark3 and got a score of 55 310 (GFX 7182, CPU 12034).

My question is, what is a typical overclock for a stock cooled ASUS Radeon 9800XT? Can I go any higher than what I have now on stock cooling? If so, is the ATITool 0.0.22 the best program to do so? Thanks a bunch!

I managed 433 / 784, beyond that I get artifacts. Is that any good for a 9800XT on stock cooling?

EDIT I restarted my computer and now I get artifacts above 420 core ... wtf?

I can't get far over 430 as well, but maybe that's just my vgpu too low.
You can read your temperatures with atitool, maybe you could post them here.. under load and idle.
