OCing my x700pro?

I had an x300 before I upgraded to my x700pro late November. It was $100, and I thought it could hold me over until I eventually got a new rig. I bought it with the intention of OCing it.

Now, Im an OCing newb, and my friend just gave me a crash course on flashing and OCing.

With stock cooling, I barely tweaked the card to see what kind of results Id get on 3DM
Here they are:

Default/Stock:

CPU: Intel Pentium 4 2993 MHz
GPU: ATI RADEON X700 PRO
424 MHz / 432 MHz
OS: Microsoft Windows XP

On to my question, are there any decent cooling devices for an x700 Pro, and what kind of performance boost would I see from it?

Also, how can I tell how far I can safely take my stock cooling?


Thanks guys.
