up the core and then scan for artifacts using the tool

you can let a bunch of artifacts go by in the scanner as long as it doesnt have a total error and shut down.

My 7900GS has a few pixels artifacting at 615mhz but i cant see any in actual games so i leave it there.

Up the core in increments of 10mhz, and scan each time, for a few minutes. If you don't see artifacts...up the core another 10mhz. Do this until you see artifacts, then just lower it, until you don't see artifacts.

Well i messed with it best i got was 620/840 higher than that my computer would freeze up or just restart. I think this is pretty low compared to b1gap's. Maybe i did something wrong?
