only way you'll know if you can get more is to try. A good friend here told me with the 9700 pro to bench with the nature test 2k1 only to test for artifacts. If artifact free then press on m8!

my stock built by ATI card (well I removed the shim and used as3 but still stock hsf) can only get to 345/340 artifact free so I'd say "yes!" you've got a good OC going on there

Yeah man that is a pretty good overclock on that card. You should be able to squeeze a bit more out of her though. I have a stock retail ATi 9700 and i can get it to 380 core and 345 memory, with nothing done to it but a slot fan under it. I use powerstrip to o/c mine. Good luck and it sounds like you already got that card hummin pretty good
