I'm interested to know what System PLL Clock speed G400 you are able to overclock to using MGATweak on a stock-standard G400 with no additional cooling system (e.g. fans, etc).
The default speed is 252MHz. I picked a number out of the air (well, 10% above default) and set MGATweak to 276.75MHz System PLL Clock (184.50MHz Memory Clock speed). I got a nice boost in 3DMark2000 from a score of 2813 to 2991, and Quake III Arena's Timedemo on High Quality went up from 41fps to over 45fps without any reduction in graphics quality. Did I hit jackpot here?
