Overclocking a ATI Raedon 9250 AGP

I currently have a Raedeon 9250 AGP 256mb, any recommendations on overclocking it?

Is it even worth overclocking such an outdated card?

I don't think that OC'ing that card would give much performance boost at all.

Thought that might be the case, this graphis card is so incredibly old . I cant even run spore .

I'll just look foward to replacing it with 2 Nvidia 9800 GTX+s or a Radeon HD4870X2

I got rid of my 9200 four years ago... :S
As it happens it's probably quite overclockable, but it won't net you any benefits to what you can and can't run, only to reduce the lag a bit.
