O/C'ing the Herc GeForce 2 MX

One question:

How?

OK make that two:

Any additional hardware I will need? Tweak utils? I plan on using a BlOrb, but do I need any other hardware? RAM sinks? Where do I get them?

Thanks in advance!

Tough times demand tough talk!

Ramsinks would be a great idea. Most of the performance gains from video card OC'ing occurs when your speed up the memory not the core. The Herc's 183 can hit about 195 on it's own maybe 200. However, with ramsinks you're looking at an extra 20Mhz.

As for the OC itself there should be a utility in your display properties. Otherwise there's several here: http://www.tweakfiles.com/

Overclockers & those who should be overclocking.
