Hi
I have a prolink 5700 ive oce'd it to 510/625 beyond that it gets unstable. So i wanted to know whther getting a new cooler like the vf700 would allow me to get significantly higher speeds or will it be not significantly highre than ive managed and should just get a new card.
Thanks

Well that card is getting out of date and if your not in the market for a hole new mobo, proc, and PCI x16 card then you should just stick with a new cooler(Zalman). There would be no point in updating to a better AGP card becuase AGP is going to end up leaving us.

Do you see artifacts if you push higher? If so then the cooler will help push the clockspeeds a little, but not much. When you get to the point that you can't play games with that card smooth enough, then just get a new card. (I'm looking to upgrade my sad 5700le to a 6600gt or 6800 soon). Don't waste too much money on cooling that 5700 though.

Getting the new cooler would incress your Core and Mem by a noticible amount with good air flow that is. You could always put that cooler on another card when you do decide to upgrade in the future.

your right, my next pc has to be big, with a nice big PCIE grafix card. BTW when do you think dual core's wil become standard?
