Argh, toofast I hate you :p
Anyways, this is all with stock cooling.. I could take one if I put a new heatsink on 9700 and some ramsinks I think. Hmm...

Np toofast it's true though! :)

Mono, did you remove the shim on your Radeon 9700 Pro?

Colin....
How much difference does it make to remove that shim ??

My radeon is stable up to 360/330......and thats it.

It's like these things come from ATI pre- overclocked.:(

toofast, originally I was known as Colin at MO too, but earlier this year was banned. Why, I dunno! :(

mike.elmes believe it or not, the shim stops the heatsink from making contact with the core! The gap is very small, but none the less cooling is compromised.

If you remove the shim, obviously it'll allow the R300 core to make contact properly with the heatsink which in my case allowed me to oc just a tad higher! ;)

I have two 9700 card here my poor one does 350 on the core and had bad contact so i de-shimmed it still no better :( .My other better card i run with a pelt/water has good contact with the shim on so i left the shim on :D

p.s the core is fragile i killed one by fitting a waterblock incorrectly and it chipped the core = DEAD be warned/careful ;)
