Is it possible to overclock ATI Radeon 9500 PRO into 9700 PRO? I know that 9500 NP with the L PCB board can overclock but can the 9500 Pro overclock into 9700 PRO? How about 9700 clock speeds? Can it overclock at all?

Thanks in advance.

It can overclock, but not to a 9700 Pro. The 9500 Pro is limited by a 128-bit memory bus, instead of the 9700s 256-bit memory. Some 9500 np's were put on 9700 PCBs, which let them be modded.

9500 pros can oc a bit mine can easily do 324 on the core the memory is a different story as it seems if u get moddel with infinion memory u will probabaly only get to about 297 which while not to bad is still lower than others that easily reach 350.
