im overclocking my ATI 9600XT 256MB AGP Video card using ATI Tool. Right now its at 530/310 (500/297 stock), and its at 40C, im using stock cooling and all, and i was wondering what the average temp of this card is and whats the highest that it can get too before i need better cooling.
well, set it back to normal then check temp.....
really, as long as u don't see artifacts, then it SHOULD be fine, if u are a little paranoid, buy yourself a better GPU cooler, or like a pci slot fan or just something to help it out.
BTW: where did u get ATI tool?

Yes No
http://www.techpowerup.com/atitool/ (i just googled for it, but i think u can get it there)
and once 3dmark03 finishes, i check ati catalyst control center and its around 48C, but in a few minutes it drops back down to around 38C.
