You can try ClockGen & see how it goes but chances are your results will be very limited. Before doing so, go into the BIOS & disable these settings in the Cell Menu:
Cool’n’Quiet control = disabled Spread Spectrum = disabled
When using ClockGen, you'll find there's no way to prevent ALL the buses from overclocking when you increase the CPU frequency. Do NOT allow the PCI bus to exceed 38MHz. That means the max CPU frquency will be about 228MHz. I'm fairly sure your RAM will prevent you from overclocking that high anyway.
Summary: i downloaded the Omega drivers for my 9800pro and when i go to over clock it says that its at Core-378 memory-337.5 i thought the 9800pro had faster specs than that or is that not really wat my card...
