Just purchased a radeon 9800pro ati brand. Heres some of the specs the ati utility tool gave me. With standered cooling or a little more could I get this card to Xt speeds? I don't want to download the bios flash, because as of yet I don't know if this is a 360 core.
One question I have is by how many Mgz should i increase at a time when overclocking my clock core(380) and my memory core(337). I broke this question into two parts hoping more people will reply.

Graphic Card manufature= Ati technologies
Graphic chipset(ASIC)= Ati R350
Rom version= 0.2065
Bios part number= 113--A075-37-
Aperture status= 64 mb@ 3712m
Device Id= 4E48
Vendor ID= 1002<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by newdude on 02/18/05 09:18 PM.</EM></FONT></P>

Thanks. I downloaded it and all went well. It helped add almost thousand points to my 3d mark 5 score. When i used the catalyst, i got only like 1700. Now i was using the demo not the whole version. Before with the catalyst driver. THe first demo was running at about 5 to 8 fps. Afther the Omega Driver was installed it was on average of 9 to 14 fps. I would like to get those to about 18 to 22 fps. None of my system is overclocked.

I have a:

1. athlon 3000(socket 754)
2. ati radeon 9800 pro 256bit
3. 512 mb ram
4. and so on


Have a question maybe you can answer. I would like to overclock my video card by about 13 mgz. I have a case fan blowing on the card. Would i have a issue about overheating?

Well take Wusy's advice about oc'ing, but take it easy. Going up by 5 mhz is good (to be honest though, i think i was going by 40 mhz increments,lol) and then, if u start to see artifacts, start decreasing by 1 mhz if u want a max overclock.

I actually surprised with ur framerate on that 9800 pro.
Is it an agp bus? If yes what type?
The information u gave above told me nothing.
i download an bios program for my ati card, and it told me my memory bus interface. I am not saying u should do this, but it would be nice to know what that is.

What do you mean AGP bus. It's in a 8X Agp slot. When you say suprised is it a good surprise or bad surprise? what is a Bios program for the card. I know i downloaded the ati utilities program for the card and thats were i got the informaition for above. My current score on 3dmark 5 free version, was 2700. Is that okay?
