You want to o/c both because if you oc just the mem then your core cant keep up and if you oc just the core the mem cant operate fast enough. so oc both im not sure on the g4's just go up in maybe like intervals of 5 and play your new never winter nights and see if there is any problem or artifacts just go up to the max and when you find that i would break the speed back down a couplp of notchs to insure stablity.

Overclock them both--you will get the best results that way.

Balance is what you have to work on. Start by keeping the core at default and see how far you can push the memory up. Then do it the other way round.

What i normally do is push the memory to it's max, then start to push the core up in 5mhz. Every time running 3dmark and getting a score. Bandwidth is more important on geforce cards. More so on geforce 2's.
