Overclocking

[Indybird]

I'm not so sure about that, I think chips can only take so many volts. I've seen a video of a cpu being overclocked with liquid nitrogen and the cpu became unstable after a while and that was like -273 C. However, the heat definably has a huge impact on how far you can overclock it, but I'm sticking to my guns in that if you raise the volts on anything it won't last as long. Besides, once you have to raise volts you won't be getting too much further anyway. So basically, if you want to keep that card for a while don't raise the volts!

Well yeah, if you try and overclock 500Mhz. I said that assuming he'd only be overclocking 50-100 MHz

You are correct, if I overclock at all, it'll only be a little. In a couple years, DX10 cards will be cheaper, and be most likely "optimized," you know, have all the bugs worked out, so I'll get one of those when I upgrade my RAM and to Vista (yes, I know I've said this before...).
