Default Great Card!....But?

Ok, so yall that follow this graphics forum might know my adventures with ati's hd series cards, i've had 3 within the last month. 2400, 2600 pro, 2600 xt. The 2600Xt....kicks ***...for what it is, an agp. My system is very makeshift and cost me about 300$ the case, 2600xt, fans and PSU was all i bought. I got the processor, motherboard, ram, and two hdds from work. I runs great, the card takes almost all of the load from the cpu. The 2600XT is a DDR3 512, with and 800mhz core and a 1.4ghz mem cloc, which to my understanding it pretty high. My question with ATI Tool is on a overclock what would be an approximate guess on the mhz gain? 20? 60? 100? I'm not sure what is average. I know the ati tool has a 1mhz ramp rate so im guessing the max oc test will take a while. What is the average time for a max oc test?


thanks alot!
