Hey guys: I got an 8500gt 512 mb 500mhz and i was thinking of overclocking it.
I just wanted to know if overclocking it(at safe levels)will really help boost any performance(noticeable performance) or is it of no use.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Use RivaTuner and you can get much more then stock performance ... I got about 45% increase in games ... and overclock was the same, 45% :) But I placed Zalmans VF900 cooler on it...

If your card has no active cooler on it, get it ;)
