Ive overclocked my x1600 to about 429 core and 440 mem. Has anyone else overclocked theirs. If so do you think i can go higher than this? Thanks
Got a tip for us?

What if any increase have you noticed in games? I have overclocked before but found the gains so marginal it wasnt worth it. You may want to consider that.

Is this in a MBP? How'd you overclock it? And I assume you mean on the OSX side of things?
Nevermind, I see you have an iMac. That's cool though.

As far as I know it is not possible on the OS X side so it is probably in windows, although maybe I'm wrong.
I've done it too but noticed barely any improvements, so I reverted it to the stock settings. Figured it wasn't worth the risk for barely noticeable improvements, but maybe depending on the game you play it could be worth doing.

I found that 470/470 was the best option for me. I used those settings for hours of gaming with no video crashes.
Ok cool thanks. I just will go around there slowly. And yes its in windows on an imac.
Yeah, I found my iMac hit the limit on core and memory around 480-490. I've heard other people get over ~500. Mine just couldn't handle it so I didn't push it over 470 MHz.
