To overclock vid cards, I prefer to use PowerStrip.

It works for virtually every GFX card and you never need to restart ur PC when using it.

PowerStrip 3.30 provides advanced, multi-monitor, programmable hardware support to a wide range of graphics cards - from the venerable Matrox Millennium I to the latest SiS Xabre and Radeon 9700. It is in fact the only program of its type to support multiple graphics cards from multiple chipset vendors, simultaneously, under every Windows operating system from Windows 95 to XP. A simple menu that pops up from the system tray provides access to some 500 controls over your display hardware, including sophisticated color correction tools, period level adjustments over screen geometry, and driver independent clock controls. A powerful application profiler can detect when programs are launched and respond by activating specific display settings, gamma adjustments, performance switches and even clock speeds - returning everything to normal when the program closes. In-game gamma hotkeys let you light up the darkest hallways during game play, and hardware control over refresh rates - with floating point precision - ensure you're never stuck at just 60Hz no matter what OS you're using. A quick setup wizard gets you up and running with minimal fuss, extensive context-sensitive help is available for all controls, and live updates are supported to ensure you're always running the latest release. Finally, an assortment of system and productivity tools - among them, extensive diagnostics, AGP device configuration, desktop icon management, a system idle thread, Windows resource monitoring, physical memory optimization, an on-screen display, and the most advanced monitor support in the industry - round out the compact 600kb package.
I never use anything else to overclock my cards.

I use the free one and all I get at bootup is "Tip of the Day" for 5 secs.

Are you sure? It's been 5 seconds for me for over a year now.

All right. Now how do you overclock your CPU on your motherboard? (Without messing up stuff...)

That's in your bios. I'm not posting anything about that because it is too easy to mess stuff up. There is plenty of info to be found on google.com!

There is no way to pick the magic number out of the air, you'd have to OC until it you hit your limit.

so much for my experimentation lol.... i overclocked the core by 15 and the memory by 5 and ended up getting colored squares all over the sky in battlefield 1942.... put the setings back to normal and the squares went away.... 15 and 5 mhz are too small an increase to even bother i suppose....

(used a 9700 pro, with nothing but the fan that came with it for all those curious ATI fans) the temp display on my case read 88.5 on average.

Can I use any driver for my GeForce or do I have to stay at what they say riva tuner is supported? I kept getting a message about my driver has not been tested on riva tuner so I went to the newest driver that it supports but I want my new driver but I also don't want to screw up my card too. If I replace my driver will I have to overclock again or will me setting stay where the are? If anyone has a GeForce 4 MX440SE 64MB DDR PCI card post your original speeds here. My card was originally 249/166MHz that seems alittle under clocked for a GeForce 4.
