I have overclocked my AGP AIW x800xt to x850xt speeds, and ran 3dmark 05 for 30mins, and my max temperature was 87 celcius. I know this is high for a CPU, but is it safe for a video card? I didnt see any artifacts, and the fan didnt seem to be spinning overly fast. Anyone have any experience with these?

i'd try to keep it lower, 87 C seems to be pretty high...aim for like >70-80C and you'll be good. what kinda temps do you get at stock speed?

I'm at 555/550 on My x800xt AIW, but i've got a copper Zalman hs on it. I never got above 50 C after the Zalman, but before, I was around 75 C at stock speeds. That was a little too hot for my liking.

I just have been benchmarking at stock, looks to be 70-75. I guess thats hot enought, since it already runs everything i play at 1280 really well. I guess if i need to, ill overclock when it starts to show its age a little more.
