What is holding my oc?

Hi

I have an N6600 from asus (6600 agp, 128 bits / 256mb), and i cant overclock it more than 390 / 550 !
The memos have 4.5ns, what explains the low memo speed, but the gpu cant go more than 390 without show artifacts in AtiTools!

What can i do to have bigger clocks??
Thanks!

With 6600 you will probably find the heatsink is not very good and not very well attached so this should be dumped for a start and a better heatsink attached. Then you should increase volts until you see multiple green triangles in 3dmark2001 dragothic and that means you are running at the top temperature your card will be happy with.

And how do i raise my volts?
Theres any way to do this with any software?

Depending on available vid modes, you may be able to alter your voltages within the vga bios. Otherwise afaik its a case of hard v-moding.
