How would I improve my air flow with the stock stuff? So say going from 1g up to 4g would greatly improve gaming?...I just recently got into Aion and experience lag when I enter some of the bigger places with a ton of people. It's not uncommon for me to go below 30fps.

Overclocking the core/memory on this card I can't get past 722/1100 ish without artifacts being found or it crashing on me. Once I reach about 730/1150+ stuff gets buggy.

Too bad I can't remember what my clocks were.
This is not always true. I've found when preping for Vantage benchies, ATItool fails at giving me stable clocks for my Vantage runs.
