never used it before and would like to know how

i read some of the guides and know what to do but not how

i tried the "Find Max Core" and it got to 2hrs and i exited because it will be far quicker manually

when i move the slider up, say 10Mhz, and hit Set Clock it just moves back down to 513Mhz (Stock)

how do i OC??

Thx in advance.

it shouldn't, move them both up like 20Mhz to start then try going up in fives and keep searching for artifacts, with my card the memory clocks double the core!

Move slider, set clocks, scan for artifacts

If you see any yellow dots on the 3d cube, you up the voltage or decrease the overclock

you should have to set clocks. I think some of the cards don't increment in .25 Mhz increments, you have to go up a bit more. Try steps of 15-20

Mine does the same thing, i tried to set it to 600/700, stock, and it droped down to like 594/697. I had to take it up to 605/705 and it dropped down to like 603/704 to get at/over stock timings.

Try re-downloading, if that doesn't work try a different version on ATI Tool.
