Anybody try to overclock one of these cards?

I got it a little while back, and honestly, the difference between it the GTX model is kinda ridiculous. Where talking a slight overclock here.. There are few models of GTX but I'm talking plain jane GTX. Fan cooled, 256MB GDDR3.

GT OC :
Core Clock 425MHz
Memory Clock 1050MHz

GTX :
Core Clock 460MHz
Memory Clock 1300MHz

Biggest difference I found was ca$h

I'd like to bring my card up to par but I couldn't find any app to tweak it.

I see 6800 ultras go up 100Mhz before they artifact, I'm sure I can squeeze something..

And yes, I could always buy the new BFG GeForce™ 7800 GTX OC™ 512MB, but that's still a little too pricey...

Cheers,

Awesome thanks!
I suppose I could have googled that.

Looking for someone who done it, who pushed it.
Maybe another forum.
