better than O'D for the serious O/C'er anyway - imo

everything else is running fine? Which version of ccc are you using?
[ati seriously needs to update this]

of course ATi Tool will crash it every time

it's up to you to back it off to the last stable o/c.

no idea what is going on with ccc's OD . . . is everything else going ok?

i found OD to be UNreliable in getting the maximum O/C . . . it is very conservative.

i dont know wuts wrong...it crashed at 560/560....b4 it took me up to 600/600 and it was stable

any heat issues?

try running 3DMarkXX to compare results with before . . . perhaps you have a problem with the last driver installation . . . maybe try an earlier CCC.

i'm running out of suggestions

Temps are good...i cut up my fan speeds...so it peaks at 70c....overclock which is lower than it is under stock XT speeds....3dmark scores i cant compare because my card was overclocked further b4.....

I have no problem using ATi Tool to OC my X850XT to 555/600. Although I had the core running stable @ 570, after a week or so, it would lock up and I had to lower it back to 555. Btw, I have a Zalman VF-700Cu on mine, using Omega 6.1's.
