It does have a big red ATI logo stamped on it though...

No matter what, I am rather excited about getting my mitts on one of these when they become available.

Macci with a Zalman = highest air overclocks ever seen...for sure.

Why stop at 12164 when you can go higher? :) And there's no doubt in my mind that this is only scratching the surface.

No, it won't fit. I already tried doing that on my 6800, but it was not possible to fit the card in the slot, because the cooler was too wide.

@GraySkull

Is there going to be and AGP version of any of this card´s?

^i believe thats a no

Wow....it was 990MHz on the mem--someone made a boo-boo in the multiplication (all early reports were at 1880MHz rather than the proper 1980MHz!).

Macci....when are we gonna see some 01 action on a better FX?

Take the Inq at your own risk...but they are usually pretty up and up.

Welcome back Macci.

Shiat nice piccies, tight fit eh :D

Btw. Check PM ;)

Don't worry the overclocking community has W1zzard. He will figure it out.

I just dont understand the situation of things at ATi HQ. Why have we heard such contradictory things lately? Where are the XLs they should be available now yet they arent till *maybe* next week? In addition *nothing* has been said about the X1300s

What happened to it being "volume" shipping? What in the world is going on?

Paper launch? Come on guys...

is there any info about holes for water cooling

The card has the same mounting pattern as the NV 6800/7800 series. A standard GPU block should fit. I am in the process of testing this. I want to OC on stock HSF first to see how much of an advantage water gives this card.

Still working on getting a program to OC with. (Both driver sets I have for the card do not have overdrive. I also assume that once I get a program it will have temp monitoring as it is a safe bet the card supports it.) Getting OC software seems to be the big issue at the moment.

is maybe same as x800? or only 6800/7800

Asking Grayskull about decisions made by the ATI management team over release dates, marketing efforts or card distribution is pointless. If he was the president of ATI he wouldn't be hanging around at xtremesystems.

Why not ask him technical questions about the cards? He's a technical resource. I'm sure he can tell us all about the ins and outs.

Not x800 which was spaced different and had only two holes. The x1800 has four holes and they are spaced the same as the 6800/7800. I attached a picture.

what about holes in the midle, they sems same for me

looks like a total of 8 holes, hopefully that will allow better gpu mounting for LN2 and Dry ice tubes.

But it did take some moddin'

Some aircooled results from yesterday evening. Normal room temp and wasn't pushing it too hard yet (no artifacts etc).
GPU 0.15V over default, MEM at default volts.

Those are big air numbers, 11k in 05 on air? That's pretty damn good for one card.
