Id like something simple and easy.

Rage3D Tweak 3.6 is pretty easy. It adds a few tabs in your control panel, and can also have an independent quickstart control so you can OC right there.
Here you go, the link is there.

NP Buckmaster .
And he wont regret it, cause he wont be doing extreme modding here. I oced my 9700Pro a bit. All you do is go as high as possible till you get glitches then drop it down a bit. Its not like you have to keep it OCed, you could just be doing it to test the cards limits, etc...its still fun, and most definitely an addiction. I even told myself I wasnt gonna OC my 9700...that was BS

Just a question, though regarding the 9500pro:

I've heard that they're clock locked by the bios...is this actually the case, or are the cards coming out nowadays overclockable? If not, anyone know of a good bios flash that enables oc'ing in the 9500pro? I just ordered one today, and it should be arriving in a week or so. I've checked the rage3d forums, but good lord there's a LOT to read over there. I'll be scouring over it for the next 7 days, but thought I'd ask here as well. Thoughts/opinions?

Thanks for the info. Guess if things don't change I'll just head back over to the Rage3d forums and pick up the latest copy of warp11's bios...that is, once I get bored with the standard card, which might never happen

Now just to decide if I want to keep DX9 and get the 3.0 Catalysts, or keep 8.1 and maybe stick with the 2.5's. Decisions, decisions.
