RivaTuner is for sissies, real hardware modification (solder) is the only way to go. Gives higher success rate and works better.

rekoal is talking about 1280x960 which is the correct resolution (1280x1024 is NOT a correct 4:3 resolution). Your TFT monitor might not be able to handle any higher resolution than 1152x864 because of the TFT limitations. Any TFT monitor is made for a resolution and will give incorrect output if used with another. That is because of the relation between pixels and pixel resolution on the screen.
This means that if your TFT is made for 1024x768 that is the resolution to use. Guess why I newer bought one... 1600x1200 is minimum for me, going below that will kill me. To get 1600x1200 on a TFT I need one larger than 20" and that will cause 2 things: high price and high MS.

To check clockspeeds get Coolbits for nVidia Drivers or download any tweaking utility for your graphics card. Like RivaTuner or similar. That will give you the info you need.
