what is the rest of the system comprised of?

Not only that but a 4200 could get from 250/444 to 320/444, 250/600 or any where between and there are no guarantees. If you want an idea then a 4200_64MB or 4200-8X_128MB should hit close to 300/600 while a 4200_128MB should get around 300/550. When ever o/c'ing anything take it in small steps and test thoroughly at each setting for any visual glitches or other signs of breaching the limit and then back it down a couple of steps. I'd try the RAM first and then the core. Do rem any gain is pretty much a free one and even if you're stuck at 250/444 you're still faster than a Rad8500 or GF3TI500 which is no bad thing at all! Oh and avoid modding the card as it's a waste of time and gains are usually VERY small, not worth the time, money, hassle or invalidation of your warranty.

thanks for the tips. it defaults at 250/513 so from what youve been saying ill just leave it there. seems high enough

Still makes alot of sense to see how high it can go, it could hit 300/600 and probably will, that will beat TI4400 by quite a way, not bad for free. Take it gradually, find the limits and then back off a bit, then BM in your fav games/apps and see what diff there is!

I have the 64MB version of the card you're asking about. I was able to clock the core up to 315 mhz and memory to 600 mhz which easily surpasses a 4400 at stock speeds and in some cases clocks higher than an overclocked 4400. My core clocks were higher than a couple people's 4400 overclocks.

If you want some additional cooling for your card check out this kit:
