9800 gx2 overclocking problems

Here are my current levelsNow the problem is that my screen is showing little red dots everywhere,it's a 32 in wega and i can assure you it's not the tv's prob,BUT say for example i minimize firefox and re open it,it's all clean,if i scroll up and down though,little red dots show up everywhrere.I was gonna blame the drivers cause i had the same prob with my 9600 gt but i know that the 9800 is basically two 8800's so WTF? 9800 gx2 overclocking problems
get ati tool and scan for artifacts... the GX2 is not a good ocer.9800 gx2 overclocking problems
My brain is confused.If an 880gt is a good overclocker than wouldnt a 9800 which is two of them be aswell?or does 8800's suck aswell of ocing?

[/QUOTE] Exactly. Less headroom for OC'ing.
my dispplay driver immediately restarts,but the first time i tried i remained errorless for 0.00.28 secs which means 0.3 milliseconds,so wtf is going on lol
I searched for the artifacts and got a nice display driver restart,was there any reason for me to do that or did you jsut want me to feel the pain? :D

What are your temps cause that is a pretty high overclock on stock cooling, if it is stock cooling? I only do 716, 1803, 1053 at those clocks I have the fan speed at 80% and hit 80 degrees on load. Unlink your clocks so you can find a more stable overclock. When I push the card a little more with the side off I only run 753 core and 1829 shader and leave the memory alone at 1053.
