Default The overlooked 8500gt?

I have been working on an 8500gt and have pushed it to it's limit. I would like to push the core even further, but one 1mhz more and I get a lot of errors in ATiTool. I am using this card:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814127295. I haven't checked the PCB out, but it seems to look similar to a lot of other layouts. The memory is ok in my opinion, but any higher than that would be nice. I am currently using the stock cooler, but I'm getting an accelero S2 very soon.

That's odd. Does the card artifact at stock? If so, RMA it.

No, it's 600/600 stock, it's 700/850 right now and runs without error. I just want to push it higher.
