How hard are you overclocking your X800XL

Just curious, for those of you with a X800XL , what overlock speeds are you
using. Also, what cooler, if not stock.

Thanks

My brother is at xt850 speeds, stock cooler. It's an AIWx800xl

Interesting. Mine is an X800XL made by ATI and if I hit 436mb with ATI tool, the
machine shuts down. I wonder how I could do what your bro does. My cooler
is a Thermalright V-1 which normally idles at 41C-43C but the case is a tall one of
steel (full tower) that is tight cramped, only 15-1/2 inches front to back, I got a large
roomy aluminum case that will arrive today via UPS.

Good service and good stock .

His is bbATI as well, just got it from futureshop in Canada a month or so
ago, just left it stock and cranked it up, was lucky I guess. I paid almost
$100 more for an x800gto a few months ago and our cards clock neck and neck.

It will do about 440/550 with the stock cooler, running in mid 60's.
That's about 15MHz (core) before artifacts start to show, but any higher
makes the system crash prone. For most use, I putt along at 420 and
535. A wimpy OC, but prudent given the marginal cooling and high temps
here in Az.

Will remove the Zalman 700 from my old R9700 and transfer it to the XL
soon. I don't expect much OC gain, but a drop in core temp can't hurt
longevity.

Oops, typo/brain fart. Make that 435 max stable, with crashing starting
not far beyond 440.

running at 405/540, with Artic Cooler 5, have run stable over 550. Idle I
get 40C goes up to lower 60s or upper 50s under heavy load.AC dropped me
10-15C, great cooler with easy install (10 min.)
