i overclocked my mentioned gfx card. GPU Clock is 643 MHz and Memory clock 923 MHz. the temperature at idle is 57 C and on full load is 68C-70C. Can i overclock it to a little bit more. usually how far can i go further. is this temperatures are normal? But when i retart my system the values are setting to default ones. But before restarting everything seems to be normal. please help me. TIA

i think u've oc'd thru riva tuner.

u can bring down those temps if u fix a fan blowing air onto the card.

i think that card can easily do 700 on the core and 1000 on the mem.

after u've reached a stable oc u can change the clk speeds permanently by flashing the cards bios with the modified clk speeds.

i didn't use any tool for overclocking.
but wen i restart my system the values setting to dafault ones eventhough i saved the over cloked frequency. why this happens?

if it 8600gt you can go on till the die melts off the PCB :p ive got it up to 700 on core and would go even more but u need to have some serious cooling.
