Post Core or Memory overclock in ATI 4850

Hi! I just want to ask which overclock will benefit more, overclocking the core speed or memory speed? Currently, i have my 4850 overclocked to 750/1125 (core/memory). I was wondering if I overclock the core more and lessen the memory, will it increase performance? I don't know which to overclock more, or which is the best balance

Considering that a 4870, which has the same core has better performance only because of the different type of memory, I'd say the memory overclock would be more important.
