Uhm, 180MHz is nothing special, most V4's can reach this speed.

According some people, OC can depend on the manufacturer of the ram your V5's got and how fast it is.

The memory and graphics chip are locked at the same speed on all Voodoo cards. If you overclock, you overclock bot the graphics chip and the memory. SO if you've got bad memory, you won't be able to overclock much.

my V4 PCI can run at 190MHz for hours of gaming...and i modded my cooling solution to heatpipe(no fan) + copper RAMsink for longer life of Voodoo4..
but if you use any kind of artifact tester, it will shows one or two dots..so i lower the clock speed to 180MHz for normal use

On a banshee, the graphics clock and the memory clock can be different like 100MHz/110MHz or faster.
