T-Bird, I've told you over and over that the A3 cores of the GeForce4 Ti could almost always hit 300MHz. It's similar to how almost all B0 1.8A Pentium 4's could hit 2.4GHz rock solid stable.
My 64M Ti4200 (Chaintech, STOCK cooling, no mods) always ran 305/605 for benches, 295/595 every day. At the higer clock I'd start to get small artifacts afte awhile, nothing crazy, but noticeable. A screen refresh would clear them temporarily....
I have already had my 4200 upto 305/645 no artifacts and it is a A1 core, all I did to it was remove the HSF and apply AS3 and put some ram sinks on with the thermal tape that come with gf4 cooling kit and they don`t fully cover my ram, they are for the small square ram(do not buy the Thermaltake GF4 cooling kit if you have a asus 9280 8x like I do it won`t fit) I hope the 4200 he is getting will be a good OCer and put this to rest about having to have a volt mod to get the ram above 600mhz.
