Testing - Overclocked
Overclocking the X850XTPE proved to be quite interesting to say
the least. It didn't take long before we figured out that the
memory was already pretty much maxed out at it's default of
590MHz. Increasing the memory clock by as much as 2 or 3 MHz would
cause artifacts to show up in the benchmarks. It looks like ATi
has already pushed the memory to it's limits. As for the GPU, this
was a totally different story. From the GPU default of 540MHz, we
were able to take the card all the way up to 575 to 580MHz. 575MHz
proved to be 100% stable, so that's what we went with for the
overclocking benchmarks.
