Overclocking ATI Sapphire Radeon 9800 Pro video card?
Hey, I just bought an ATI Sapphire Radeon 9800 Pro video card from
NewEgg. It should arrive in two days. I saw in the user reviews lots of people making comments on how they successfully overclocked the videocard to 9800XT speeds! Along with the videocard I bought an Arctic VGA Cooler and BGA ramsinks, so I should be equipped to overclock. Now the only thing I have left to ask is ... how do I overclock? Is there some utility that runs under Windows, or do I have to tweak the settings through the BIOS, or what? Thanks a lot. |

If the video card comes with a big heat sink without a fan, you might have to get a fan to cool it should you decide to overclock it. -- __________________________________________________ *** Post replies to newsgroup.

Free to download from the net, and integrates in the normal video settings under a new "clock rate" tab. First visit www.guru3D.com where you will find a lot of useful info about the Radeon 9000 series. |
