Overclocking
 

I have a Radeon 9800 Pro (HIS Excalibur) and I want to overclock it. What do I need to do so and do I need a VGA Silencer or something other than the stock cooling fan? I was actually gonna order a VGA Silencer because they're quiet and they look really cool. :biggrin:

One more question for you techies out there. What's the differance between my Radeon 9800 Pro (HIS Excalibur) and a Radeon 9800 Pro (Saphire)?

Is this a good one? http://www.jab-tech.com/customer/pro...&cat=93&page=1

I'm sure it will cool it fine, but I was able to get a very nice overclock on the stock fan. I have it watercooled now. I got it to 430/365 on stock fan, of course I had ramsinks on the ram.

hmm triple post. please don't do that

lol sorry, but it's not like theyre all in the same minute :(

edit's are good.. and yea, triple posts make us :mad:


don't push it too far on stock cooling, but it should oc a bit

There is difference between the two, but remember they are by different companies. It's not much I'm sure. I've dealt with Sapphire in the past and I like them, so that's who I'd recommend.

How's That? :nod:

Is it bad to open the side of my computer while it's running? Cause right now the side panel is off and I'm staring at the beautiful components :lol:
