Want a real test for video overclocking?

[Dulanic]

I got my GF4 4400 a week ago and had played around and set it to 315/630 and it ran everything fine.... 3D Mark, Quake3, Jedi Knight 2, Warcraft 3 and a few others... all ran fine.... I then run Asheron's Call 2 Beta..... good ole dots and artifacts all over the damned place... had to clock the card all the way down to 300/600 to get rid of them. Who woulda thought it... a MMORPG pushing a video card more then anything else I tried? I dont quite still get why it ran the Nature demo in a loop for 3 hours fine.... but couldnt run AC2 for 2 min before the artifacts and dots showed up. Oh well 300/600 is alright with me, still running everything at 1280x960 with 4x AF and 2x AA. The game is beta.... but it is the OCing causing it... and I dont see how a game engine would effect the stability of a overclock unless it just pushes the card the most. I guess it could be using features other games dont use.. it is a DX8.1 game...
