Right.

no.

dynclock had some problems in the first versions. So people wrote  
something to manually set the clocks to a fixed value (no "dynamic"  
frequency changing, just set the clocks). Now dynclocks works perfectly  
and there is no need for rovclock anymore.

Except if you want to push the radeon a little bit more then dynclock  
does. rovclocks allows ANY frequency for V-RAM and GPU. No limit for  
under- or over-clocking. Itīs dangerous and should be handled with care.

And donīt mix them. Never.
