Best Tool IMHO to use:
AtiTool <-- get the latest version that comes bundled with the omega drivers for ATI cards... www.omegadrivers.net
To remove stock heatsink/fan:
Yes, look on the back of the card.
There are 3 screws.
2 screws are connected to a bracket (on the board of the board) that holds the heatsink/fan to the board - undo both (unscrew one halfway then the other half way to avoid putting too much stress on them
) and one larger screw that helps hold the sink to the board. Remove all 3 screws (don't loose the washer on the larger one) and take the heatsink off. It make be slightly "stuck" to the board , because of the thermal "goop" applied to the core.. so be careful and do it slowly .... remove the "goop" with rubbing alcohol - apply as5 and plop on that fancy new cooler.

I also recommend this Docta_Z. But, I think the BEST overclocking software is Rage 3D tweak. Heres the link: http://www.rage3d.com/index.php?node=r3dtweak Not even kidding, this is BY far the best overclocking software i've ever seen. I would recommend Radclock or Radlinker. Just google it and you will see!

Not a bad post, you can't be expected to remember everything exactly.
