Overclocking newbie doesn't want to fry his nvidia card

[nick2124]

Hey guys,

Never overlocked before... So im new the worlding of OCing and need some tips.

I've just Oc'd my XFX 7800 GT / stock cooler from stock specs to 498/1200.

How much further can I push it?

As for stock specs I think they were 425 / 1100.

Just push it a bit more, stress it, if its good pus it mroe then stress it again. And so on until you get triangles/artifcats, then backdown a bit and stress it for a long time.

It should work good then.
