well not excatly.it isnt that easy.first you have to have already know what your apsolute highers mem clock is in nature and core clock,althou core wont affect it much but the i only got it to start acting like this after i hit 550 core.the core has to be pretty high it seams to work.
hard to explain the fealing it gives.like a engine reved wide open and then you hit the no2.its like that it happens so fast.

but anyways.afte the highest core is reached..say 555core and men actifacting just slightly.
now drop core back to a safe speed...you do not want lockups.i drop mine 5mhz to 549or so.
now the memory say it hits 410 with artifacts in the stream slightly.now.reboot pc and start 3d2001.
run in this order...( i will kill myself if i get stopped giving out the secrets...LOL)
run at one session
dragothic low.
lobby low
lobby high.


then run car high

then dragothic high

then car low/run at least until you get 310 or so.
now nature..
set it back to the safe core speed for me 549
then set the mem slightly higher,until it starts the tear slightly in the begining.
now i have to run nature at least 4 times in a row right behind each other..this heats the circuit somhow.and each time i get more artiffacts but the score will start going up but slightly.
now the screen will after it gets hot enough,start to not artifact but clear out.sorta like you get a lower LOD and you lose the front objects and only see the back ground..like sky and water.looks like the test where you get the colors sweeping over the screen.
now the test is still running but if it does this at the right point where you are say hitting 200fps and then the screen goes funny..not tearing thou.the fps will stay high until the test is finished.
i had run nature one day countless times untill i figured it out.

it is just alot of time to find certain tricks.we all have them.and no one talks about most of them.

and i need to check the bios on this card as i havent.that could be alot to do with it,but it has always had a great nature score even with out this trick ,,look at this one i ran just to show i can push it even harder.
