Default 5200 w/coolbits2+3 installed won't overclock
I have a 5200-256 meg card.if I make any adjustment up or down on the clock speed and test it the results say to lower my clock speed.In other words it won't let me change it at all.is it time to upgrade or am I missing something?

I tried Riva tuner.No matter if I increase OR decrease core clock or memory clock it will fail the test followed by the recommendation that I lower them to my starting point.Thanks for any advice!
