Do you guys think the 8800GT would be OK without active MOSFET cooling? I'm thinking of an 8800GTX-style cooler but it wouldn't touch them... should I grab some BGA RAMsinks and put them on if they will fit, or is the card OK anyway with a 120mm fan blowing toward it anyway?
EDIT: The cooler's design would pull some air across them, as well... so they probably won't need sinks I wouldn't think?
EDIT2: Pic: http://www.thermaltake.com/product/C...e/02_app_1.gif exhausts the hot air out the back.
EDIT3: It comes with some low-profile sinks too, so if they seem needed I will pop em on :D. Lots of pics... http://foros.tecnycenter.com/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=372

I am planning on using a MCW60 waterblock and the 8800 series ramsink kit for the memory chips. I hope the swiftech 4 black heatsink for the MOSFET will work on the 8800GT too as I have them also. I am going to wait a month or so with a 8400gs as a temporary non-gaming card. So you all can let me know how it goes :) .
Here's my EVGA SuperClocked 8800GT with a HR-03 and a Panaflo 52CFM fan on top of it. Just wanted to show y'all ;)
Temperatures:
37C/47C Load (10 minute ATITool run). Stock.

Aye, please do let us know even preliminary results, let us live vicariously through you! I need something to help me survive until Friday when my two eVGA 8800GT 512 KO Edition cards come from newegg (have tracking info already, WOOT!) :D! Oh and, thanks in advance ;) :)!
EDIT: Krogen posted on OCforums this:
I hope someone finds a voltmod, hopefully one that isn't one requiring robotic nanosurgical skills to solder at that :D! VR-zone has a thread asking for any info people find: http://forums.vr-zone.com/showthread...12#post4451712Quote:
Well, I'm benching at 740MHz core now (haven't tried upping memory). No artifacts. I tried going for 750MHz but it looks like the card needs more voltage (started to artifact). 47C Load temperature (HR-03 w/ Panaflo 52CFM fan).
Personally, I'm impressed. It looks like the card will go much further but it seems like it needs more voltage (hopefully that's the case).
Sweet stuff
GoldenTiger, I tried using the ExperTool you mentioned but it doesn't seem to be reading shaderclocks properly (1820MHz MINIMUM ???).
740MHz / 1020MHz seems to be the most I can get. Will do a benchmark in a little bit.
Edit: Forgot to post a pic. Eeek.

yeah what about the mosfet .... we can just not cool it?? isnt that bad?? i am gonna wait for some official cooler out .. preferably by thermalright
yo krogen, try the new rivatuner 2.06 beta...see if it works

does anyone know how the new Zalman performs? the Vf1000LED
http://www.zalman.co.kr/eng/product/...x=289&code=013
to me it looks like a stock 7900gtx cooler in all copper and a polished base. i would like to see how this and the VF900 LED works with this card as well.
I saw a review somewhere that showed it doing impressively, but its major caveat is it doesn't exhaust air out the case, leaving it to circulate back, especially important for SLI. That's why I'm going with the Thermaltake ND1's, myself. That looks good for a single-card though, for sure! Could probably self-shroud it anyway to exhaust air.
well thats only at 700/1750/2000
yeah if i did selective startup and benched higher can get atleast 500 points more
also hmm note the 8800gt does not follow the G80 clocks increase
which is core by 27 ( theres a weird 1682 which doesnt follow the increase)
and shader by 54
its more or less what u set is what u get
hmm just used nitbit on the card
interesting
the voltages
u can still up it to 1.1
does anybody here have the evga 8800gt SSC bios..
if u do please pm me...
want it ...
ty
here is the bios
so hmm shall i up the voltage to 1.1??

If you have a way to flash back using a PCI backup, I'd go for it... if it's already in the BIOS there it may actually work :eek:, at worst it probably just won't affect anything.
(well, the HR03+ doesn't fit 8800gt.. :( )
