Just OC'd my Radeon; how high can I go and be safe?

I just overclocked my Radeon 64 DDR VIVO to 201 MHz and it's running like a top; I also installed the latest beta drivers (they became available yesterday) and tweaked some settings with the Radeon Tweaker utility. My question is: How high can I set my clock speed and still be safe? Also, does anyone have any other tweaking suggestions? I'm always up for advice.
 
How much you can overclock depends on the chip quality. Some people can hit 220, some can only hit 190. It depends on many factors. The best thing to do is start increasing the speed by a few MHz and rebooting. Then play some games and look for either random graphical glitches, "snow-flake" type anomalies, or card freezes. When you start experiencing any of these, then its time to turn down the clock a bit. Turn it down a few MHz and find the sweet spot. Thats how high you can go...
