Hi!

I want to overclock my creative geforce256, but I'm only got the standard
cooler on. I got a 3dfx-slot-cooler down under it. I have heard that the
problem whit overclocking limits is not a cooling question, but it's because
it can't get enough power.

What do you think? Can I overclock it more when I have a new cooler and some
ram-heatsink. Or will it only be that little that it not all that worth.

My system:

Epox's KX-133 motherboard
300 W PSU
128 Mb PC-133 ram
550@666Mhz (damn that core)
GW's FKK50 cooler
Creative's Geforce pro, 135/335, driver 5.32
3dfxcool's slot cooler
midi tower
2coolPC-plus

when room is 22C, my cpu is 35C and the tower is 23C. I don't know the
geforce temp.

Whit this clock frequency I have sometimes color flashing in games, but not
much.
