Cooling vs. Overclockability. GeForce 6200.

As the title says I have a GeForce 6200 and I've been overclocking using ATI Tool. Not an incredible increase, but noticeable nonetheless. My brother just gave me some heat syncs for the memory and a fan from a GeForce 7600, and I was just wondering if these extra cooling accessories will help me to overclock more?

Thanks for any response.

Yep they'll definately give you more OCing headroom. Seeing as the 6200 only has passive cooling the fan will definately help. I've got my 6200 overclocked now... only to 364MHz though. I'm doing more soon. Get back to me because i wanna know how high you get yours before you see artifacts

WELCOME TO DEV

Personally I would overclock the CPU and not the card.I think you'll see more of a performance increase that way
(No OFFENCE meant)
The 6200 is not a highend card....by OCing the card your only going to shorten the life of the card.
And a 30% OC will only give you a few FPS.....imo not worth it

Hey thanks for the replies. Yeah, I OC my CPU as well. I'm somewhat dumb, because I glued the heatsyncs to my card and can't fit the fan anywhere

I might have to pull off a major modification to get it on there D:
