Product Description:

ATIccelerator II can change ATI graphics cards frequencies live, on-the-fly, under Mac OS X. It's much more sophisticated and convenient to use than Graphiccelerator for the following reasons:
  • no potentially dangerous flashing required
  • no cumbersome three-steps process (dump, modify, then reflash ROM)
  • no need to reboot for every frequency change
  • no OS 9 required (that's right, G5s and other recent OS 9-free Macs are now supported!)

What's new in this version:

Fixed memory frequency for the 1.5 Ghz Mac mini's Radeon 9200

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.4 PPC
  • Mac OS X 10.3.9

Additional Requirements:

  • Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later
    ATI card no older than the Rage 128

ATIccelerator II ReviewNice lil tool - Version: 1.0.6b, 12/27/2006 07:10AM PST

Very simple, very easy to use. No rebooting needed to change the numbers. (only reboot required is after install)

Gives visible (mostly positive) effect with most games and apps when giving 10% boost to the v-card. It works nice.

But I wouldn't suggest giving much more than max 10%, as higher numbers may damage the graphic card permanently - especially if you don't provide extra cooling.

For laptop-users: You can use this tool to lower energy-consume of the graphic card by lowering the graphic CPU-speed. While in other hand, you can expect extra power-consume when you increase the speed.

ATIccelerator II ReviewBattery Life - Version: 1.0.6b, 6/11/2006 09:55PM PST

Machine: G4 PowerBook (Alu, 2004), 15, GHz, 1GB RAM, ATI 9700/64MB, OS X 10.4. Increased processor clock speed to 450 (+15%) and memory speed to 225 (+11%), so far no problems. MS Word windows behaved somewhat erratically, and it appeared to me that my PowerBook just sucked the power from the battery. Then I underclocked the processor to 126 MHz and memory to 63 MHz. No idea if this are the real numbers, but indeed, I saw a decreased in fps in No Limits (a rollercoaster simulator), but even with the highest resolution, screen size detail, bit depth etc, the framerate rarely dropped below 20 fps, most of the time it was around 24-26 which made no difference in terms of user experience compared to 40+ fps with the card "cranked up". But most important, the ventilator remained silent (while it starts almost immediately with the overclocked card..). Perhaps this little app turns our to be more useful than intended by the author

Not sure if it's mentioned anywhere, but it doesn't work on an Intel MBP.
