I based this OC on other peoples results, of course i know they dont have the same memory or the same graphics card but what is a reasonable overclock that wont shorten my graphics cards' life by a lot.
advice please...

well this is the wrong forum, but overclocking the 9250 won't yield great performance results just because the fact the card is so low end. despite all that go ahead and download ati tool and allow that program to overclock your card for you, its fairly accurate, once it finds the max mem and core i would downclock the card on the core and mem a few mghz from that and run 3dmark01 or 03 a few times to check for artifacts.

Your card's is already short, I don't think it can be shortened any more. ;)

Speaking of 9250, I once had 9200 and the core overclocked around 60 Mhz more, so try that.
