i have the geforce fx5500 128mb card, and it has a core clock of 270 and memory clock @ 266, what do you recommend i can overclock to safely. thanks.
 
Like the other dude said, nVidia has a built in tool for setting clock speeds. But you need to download coolbits.reg to enable it. Just google it.

It also will not let you overclock too far as it makes you test your settings before you can apply them.
 
there isn't a safe way to oc... u can be safer by being carful and just doing it gradualy but there is always the chance of it damaging ur card
 
true, but how many people who use coolbits to overclock have you heard damage their card? if it fails the test, you can't set it to that frequency. the only way possible to damage it is maybe to keep it at a frequency where you are getting artifacts, that said, who would do that?

oh, and you could possibly completely screw your card if give it a bit much AGP voltage :)
