I recently built a new computer and I put an ASUS ATi x850Pro PCI-x16 card in it. I was talking with my friend who got the x850XE Platnium Edition and he has an overclocking feature in his ATi Control Panel. I don't have this feature and he said that he heard that it might have to be unlocked on my card.

Any idea how I can get to this? I want to take full advantage of this card and not being able to overclock it isnt helping. I don't know much about overclocking as I have never done it before, but he said all that has to be done is move the sliders a bit and try it out.

If it helps, here is my system specs (the important stuff at least):
AMD A64 3200+ Venice
ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe (Yes, I realize that this board with an ATi card is dumb)
2GB PC3200 Ram (running at 333mhz for some reason)
ASUS ATi x850 Pro PCI-x16 256mb
SoundBlaster Audigy 2 Pro

Thanks,
Steve
