Is 230 core and 390 memory good speeds for a GeForce 2 Pro?

[Medellon]

I can overclock my GeForce 2 Pro card to these settings, are these good? I can go higher on the memory but at 395 I start to see artifacts and 400 gets pretty bad but it does not lock up. Is there any way I can get my speeds higher? Thanks.

no they suck. But you probably have the 5.5 ns ram so you can't oc above 400. I suggest you send it back and get a TRUE geforce pro with 5ns ram. Those babies can oc to 450 usually.

I do have 5.5 ns ram and a better comparison would be to another card with the same speed ram. Also, I only paid $132 for this card which I think is a pretty good deal.

well, Sudheer Anne was a little harsh...

anyway...the 5.5ns cards are spec'ed to run at 366mhz (or 363mhz?) so 390mhz is a decent amount higher. that difference would be like a geforce2 gts running at ~355-360mhz (the amount of overclock, not the speed). it is not a huge overclock but it is still pretty good. the upper limit on the 5.5ns cards is probably around 400mhz and results always vary a bit with overclocking. also, even houh you can go higher without locking up, once you see artifacts the card has reached its limit...
