1st uninstalled Nvidia drivers and installed some old omegad rivers
2nd I found and installed this cool program called RivaTune that lets me oc my card
3rd I added an old Amd-k6 cpu fan onto my video cards Heatsink
4th kept Ocing little by little by little and ended up doing MAx on both my GPU clock and memory clocl here is a pick of how it ended up.(100% stable)
Overall i gained about a 30% increas in performance on my Pc really nice i think :-) anywho if anyone know how i can do better or if i screwd up on something let me know
Ps: if any of you know how i can increas the max clock on Rivatunner i would grately apreciate it
i want to take my GPU and memory even HIGHER!

You may not want to just max out the speeds on the card, easy way to kill it. Use ATI Tool and let it find the maximum stable speeds.

Wow that card is old, I think 30% is pretty good for a card like that, but I couldn't say for sure, don't know too much about it. Older cards like that could sometimes benefit from bios flashes to unlock more pipes, but it depends and I don't know. See what google turns up.

is rivatuner suposed to be on when Ati tools is running?
or should i turn it off??
dude go buy an agp card for 10$ i bet you 10$ its better than the MX440, last i used one of those was about 5 years ago i think....
although it is interesting to look at the steam/source stats and see that there is alot of people happily running source in DX7 with an MX series card :)

With a 30% overclock you could play WoW on low! :D
I hope this isn't your best card. I found one of these in my food cupboard when I was moving (Obviously it confused me a bit) similar model, different brand XD (PNY)
