The otherday, in another website, the antispam filter deleted my whole account, due to some &quot;misconfiguration&quot;, lol! So your antispam filter is ok I guess!</description>

		<description>Well, using these two tools, I have overclocked my 5850 at 1Ghz/1.25Ghz.

What people need to understand, is that the 5850 uses the same memory modules as the 5870, which are 5GT/s capable, so there is no problem running them at 1250Mhz. Moreover, even if that pushes them to the limits, you cannot crash a GDDR5 based evergreen because the worst thing that happes upon error, is the resend of the data. Ok if you overdo it, you end up with less performance but the whole system is very tolerant.

I have measured the performance increase and it is a solid 30% over the stock clocks. Unfortunately it is not uber stable in all games, but so far the only games that crashed are Fear 2 and Trine and that is at very specific location, so i guess there is a shader running there that is too difficult. Problem solved at 950Mhz though, and it remains to be seen if I can go a bit higher for these two!</description>
