i have used the ati tools befor it will overclock your graphics card automatically-take an hour- but it overclockes it safely..if you do get eney problems restart pc and all settings will be reset

once the ati tools has found the safe limit you then save it in a profile .then everytime u tern pc on ull have to go into settings and set that profile

Yes it does auto overclock"kinda", but I would suggest that you keep an eye on it at all times as it is possible for it to keep moving the clock speeds up while artifacts are clearly visible on screen
