1st: Welcome to the forums :)

2nd: Not all cards oc the same even tho they're the same exact card. Evry card has it's limits, unfortunately yours has hit it. Nothing else you can do but enjoy it.

We try to keep things organized here.
I did respond to your other post in the video and sound section though.
 
One problem is that the faster the core goes, the more heat it emanates. That heat goes to the heatsink and the rest of the card. Turn down your core clock to 250Mhz. Turn your comp off for a few hours and then test how high the mem can go.

i have zero heat problems with my ti4200 cuz i ahve a thermaltake orb modded on my core.
 
He is not saying you have a heat problem. The higher you OC the memory/core, the less OCing the other can take. You have to try and find a balance between OCing the core and memory.

Like me, I used to have my Ti 4600 OCed to 320/770. But, when I lowered my memory to 743 and my core went up to 324(not a huge gain, but I will tell you the results). With the card at 320/770, I got 12,700ish in 3DMark01. When I changed it to 324/743(nothing else changed BTW) I got 13,900ish.

You just have to find the so-called 'sweet' spot on your card. Higher number isnt always better, as I found out.
