Hi.

I already wrote about this but I didn't get an answer yet. How far can
you overclock the MSI's GeForce 6600GT 128MB (NX6600GT-VTD128) with the
retail fan?

Right now the default settings are

Core Clock:
2D: 300MHz
3D: 500MHz

Memory Clock:
900MHz

How much higher can I put them with the retail fan?

And can I just overclock with the program they give to do it or do I
need to increase the voltage in the bios or something?

just keep overclocking untill you start to get artifacts in games then turn
it down a bit

Well, memory is in fact rated at 1000Mhz, so it will work at that speed
almost certainly.

Beyond that, it is about luck. Mine goes up to 560/1150 stable (I get
artifacts at 570). I have heard that MSI, thanks to better cooling, goes
even higher.
