Is there a coolbits reg hack equivalent?

Ther are some pretty good OC utilities out ther, like

Rivatuner http://www.guru3d.com/rivatuner/

Powerstrip http://www.entechtaiwan.net/ps.htm

Thanks! Do you know if there is a simple reg hack to show the core/mem
frequency in the standard ATI control panels? Similar to nvidia coolbits
reg hack?

[dbwillis]

i dont think theres a reg (coolbits) type hack for ATI cards.....

[SupermanCK]

i think there is something similar but u no need to get into regedit...
i forgot what i did, but i have the clock adjust under my display tab

[mysteryman]

I have a 9800 NP. How far have you guys oc'ed this bad boy?

Thanks samcolt! Used radclocker today.

I can get 400/320 on my 9800NP without artifacts.

at 410 core, I see snow in stream in 3dmark2003::nature streams.

at 330 memory, I get some tearing in 3dmark2001::4x4 high detail.

Thanks to all here for all the advice.

I am getting about 19K for 3dmark2001 and about 6K for 3dmark2003.
