Overclocking...

[AKA]

I have an winfast geforce3 TDH and im wondering how much i can clock the card (Graphic Clock & Memory Clock)? What mhz can i use on it?

Hard to say for sure as every card is slightly different.

I advice that you take the normal safe method and overclock it by small incriments such as 5mhz and give it a good test with something demanding each time. Look for any artifacts or degredation in image... keep going until you see them, and then drop 10mhz, and thats the safe value you can overclock too !

If there were a set number they would have just sold it like that. You are going to go out of spec. so "your mileage may vary". My typical method is to bump it up by 5mhz increments running some heavy loads inbetween bumps (run a quake demo about 5 times). Once you get to the point where you get video abnormalities or stability problems, stop and backup 10mhz.
