Are anyone you aware of any method, how to remove the low limit on the underclock there?

25/30MHz might be good for most, but certainly not for me (Forceware 40.41 WHQ with coolbits). I run FX 5200 core at 8MHz:

...so 25MHz on the core is pretty damn high. Anyone have idea, where is the limit written, so I could change it?

I had to make sure this wasn't some thread necromancy. You're trying today to overclock a video card from 2004 with software from 2006 on Windows XP? The FX 5200 was already quite terrible back then compared to the competition. It's not going to perform well, at all, ever, and no amount of overclocking will change that.

Anyway, there are lots of modern overclocking tools you could try, for curiosity's sake perhaps (?), but I'd be impressed if any one of them still worked with such old hardware.

    • The Light of Life? We actually do glow till our Death, study finds

      I am not surprised because life is the product of a lot of biochemical and physical processes that releases various energies as a by-product. The only thing new here is the detection of these photon emissions. The researches noted this "glow" is not a metaphysical one. They don't even immediately end when one is dead. Things like fires, light bulbs, and on a bigger scale stars release a lot more "light" and they are hardly alive.
