it is a 9800 gt and I overclocked it from 600 core clock to 680, shader clock form 1600 to 1675, and memory clock from 900 to 995. Do you think I overdid it? ANd do you think it really matters considering my cpu is already bottlenecking it since its only an x2 anthlon 4600+?

The core should be fine, but watch it closely,watch the memory tho, it could cook running 24/7. You could up the shaders.
Now, are you monitoring your temps? What perf gains have you seen?

yea im monitoring the temps, I hear you dont want it above 80C is that right? It never gets that high when I put the fan speeds up above the stock settings to about 65 always on or more. But is the heat the only thing to look at when overclocking?
