Ok I finally got over the 13k barrier now what do I do? How much higher can I go before I have to mod the vid card, or buy any new parts? Are there any other tweaks or something I can do?
fsb 188x10=1880
turbo settings
324/750
what bias settings do you use?
any tweaks are appreciated.

move to a p4 ;)
nah, just kidding
Your gpu core isn't high...
Is that ti still with the default cooler?
maybe you should get that thing off and get a pelt/watercooler on it, you'll probably go way up on that one range 350-360 with a little luck.
If you want it less expensive, get a pal 6035 with a screaming delta fan, and get it on that gpu... maybe that'll get you up.
apart from that, all you can do is wait for some t'bred action.
if it can go to 2 gig on air that'll get you another 1000 points.
there's plenty of posibilities.

well I have a crytal orb on it right now but I think I put it on bad. Maybe bad contact with GPU. I also have ramsinks. Also on my card the pins wouldn't fit with the orb so I had to use AS Adhesive to get it on there. I hear that its virtually impossible to get off but I dunno. Anyway, I'm a newb to extreme oc methods such as pelts, etc. But I really wanna learn. I am a college student so money is kinda tight. I can't go buy another gf4 if I screw this one up. So what should I do? Any possibilities w/o spending extra cash? Do my scores seem ok? Do I need to go get a pelt, maybe do a volt mod???

I wouldn't voltmod it... I've seen plenty of burnups with ti4600's...
crystal orb isn't any better than most of the default coolers...

damnit, well I dunno anything about pelts except how they work but I don't know how to install one on a vid card. Also I have to put a hsf on it too right? That seems a little complicated. Guide would help.

search the hwfaq, there's plenty of stuff in there : www.hwfaq.be
you definately need watercooling if you want to cool that pelt well.
if u used the epoxy and u get that CRORB off lemme know how :)
I had a CPU cooler on my Gainward Ti4200 and had the thing in the freezer for an hour followed by 20mins in a vise and never did get it off :D
Least I didn't mess up the card I reckon...lesson learned ;)

yeah, damn orb is on there pretty good. So there is nothing else that can be done without upgrading some form of cooling? Right now I'm saving for something similar to the mxeva3 or the prometeia.
