Hi guys,

firstly i will say that this site is great and i found many useful information,but i have one question.I bought recently an asus a9550 GE (samsung 4ns) and as i read,i overclocked it with atitool,default 250/200 to 405/300 oc.but after 2 weeks about when i changed my drivers then my RAM crashed after i clocked it even at 260 MHz,i couldnt believe,i got instantly artifacts all over screen... could I damage my RAM with too high oc?i dont believe,but i would hear opinions...
OK, after that i decided to flash bios,with 9600 pro bios of sapphire 4ns samsung.and what i discovered is that now with 9600 pro bios i can keep my card overclocked at 400/270 and i use this settings since 10 days about and everything works fine.....
but i tried also higher ram oc ,but i get artifacts....

i would really like to hear opinions of my post,

thanks!
