Any Suggestions on Video Card OC Speeds for 8500le?

[thebestMAX]

Radeon 8500 le 128M

Out Of Box: 250/250

Now: 275/275

Any ideas on a safe OC for this card? Other 8500s are advertised at 275/275 so I thought this a good place to start.

Thanks

What speed rating is the ram? 3.6ns will usually do 300MHz easy. I bought a used Herc. 8500le which has 230MHz stock speed on 4ns Hynix ram, and I was amazed when I flashed it with the 7.005 ATi bios and rage 3dtweaked it to 310/310 stable.

I agree with killrose...I had 4ns memory and it really didn't do much better then 280/280 on mine...Look at getting better chipset cooler and ram sinks and maybe 300/300 is doable....
