So this is my OC on my albatron gf4 ti4800se. Core speed might be able to go up but im pretty sure memory fails at anything higher. Is this a good overclock for a GF4?

sounds good to me
that ram oc's well don't it
just make sure yur not getting artifacts
i've had a GF2 GTS overclocked high for a few weeks then the ram gave out on me
so make sure yur a good bit below the point where even the smallest artifacts appear

Yeah thinking of turning it down a bit, 735 is just below where i get artifacts, i did however manage to hit 340 on the gpu clock with no artifacts(using artifact tester on hardocre setting). Is this a reliable test or do i need to test it differently?

i've never used the artifact tester since i run linux, but i would say the best test is to play yur favorite demanding game (ie: ut2003) for a few hours
if it survives that then yur good
but i would be atleast 5 to 10mhz below the point where you get artifacts
so you look alright
also if it gets hotter in the summer you might wanna drop it another few mhz just for safety's sake, hehe
