Overclocking Gigabyte Radeon 7000.

Cast in the name of God, Ye not guilty.
So I ordered some parts from newegg a few weeks ago. One of the items was a Gigabyte Radeon 7000. When I got it I noticed it had 4ns RAM and the first thing that crossed my mind was "This will overclock well"... and it did.
Sorry for the large picture size.

The core any faster than 230MHz was unstable
The RAM any faster than 230MHz/460MHz DDR there was heavy artifacting.
230MHz Core and 230MHz/460MHz DDR RAM was unstable.
I used some extra cooling (see pic below)... but I feel that it would be stable at 200MHz Core - 200MHz/400MHz DDR with stock cooling.

This is the cooling that was used.

This is what it looked like at Core: 210MHz - RAM: 240MHz/480MHz DDR
