Can anyone help?
396/396 after much tweaking I have moved the speed boundaries further!! My Radeon 9600 rocks...
Get this... IT HAS NO ON BOARD FAN!!! (case side fan seems to be doing adequately)
Thats a massive 22% speed increase on the core clock speed!!
Areas of KOTOR that were perhaps a bit choppy at first are alright now!!
Note Radeon 9600 series are very "stretchable" in terms of overclocking I saw an overclockers article detailing how a 9600 pro hit core speeds of over 520mhz and yet was still down on performance compared to a 9700 Pro running at speeds below 400mhz

Provided you have adequate cooling you should be able to get 380/360 easily. Just dont go above 412 on the core.

I got it from download.com but it was 38Mb or something. Try looking at some PC mags, it might be on the cover disc or something.
wait for it...
387/387 stable!!! yeah!!!

Yes.

No, not on the 9800SE AIW.
Ive had to remove my graphics card since this post, there was serious confliction with the 3 year old motherboard.

I thought that the Radeon 9800 series had 8 pipelines working anyway??
