Just wanted to ask - whats the biggest increase in an AquaMark score anybody's had, just from overclocking their card? Here's what I'm running: 3.2GHz P4, Hyper-threading enabled. Crappy Dell motherboard. 800MHz FSB, 512MB DDR-400 RAM. Radeon 9800. When I first benchmarked with AquaMark, these were my settings and results:…

Just wanted to ask - whats the biggest increase in an AquaMark score anybody's had, just from overclocking their card?

Here's what I'm running:
3.2GHz P4, Hyper-threading enabled.
Crappy Dell motherboard.
800MHz FSB, 512MB DDR-400 RAM.
Radeon 9800.

When I first benchmarked with AquaMark, these were my settings and results:

VPU Settings:
Core Speed: 324 MHz
Memory Speed: 290.3 MHz
Result: 37,400

Having overclocked, at my maximum settings (without any artifacting), and perfectly stable:

VPU Settings:
Core Speed: 411.8 MHz
Memory Speed: 330.8 MHz
Result: 45,600

That's an 8,200 increase! Can anyone top this? I'm thinking of flashing to a 9800 Pro tomorrow, since I appear to have the right memory for the job. Any thoughts?
