    What's a better overclock? 401.14/337.5 (core/memory) or 397.8/345 (default core and o/c memory)? Assume neither gives artifacts after 10 minutes.

    How far can an AMD Athlon 64 be overclocked?

    Get a DFI UT3 (754) for a max overclock!

    Hi - I'm getting 405/345 core/memory overclock from the 400/297 default. That's a 16% increase. I just load ATITool whenever I play a game..no need to flash the ROM or make any physical damage!
