600 dollar headache? Looks like I got exactly what I paid for. Overclocking is never a promise. I still got more than 5K in 3dmark06 over the 400 dollar card I used to have.
What are temps like at load with the fan set to 60-70%?
My load temps are around 65 - 70 full load.Quote:

All this with the fan set to 90%
Is it really noticeable over the noise from the case fans?
Stock fan speed...No, not at all.Quote:

Have you tried the 173.67 drivers? The overclock 700+ issue seems to be common. Wonder if its the 174.53's or if the cards throttling.Quote:

Heads up. I purchase two of these and one was bad. It only ran on one gpu and the scores were terrible. Something like 12,000. I uninstalled and reinstalled the card. Same thing. I removed the card a second time and put the second card in and WOW. got over 18,000 at stock in vista. It eventually overclocked over 19,000.
I put the first card back in and the same thing. It was a bad card. I didn't change a thing between cards. two gpu showed up in the device manager and everything for the first card. Don't know what's up but mwave sent me a second card. I get it this afternoon.
I used driver 174.53
Wait, the card is fine if it gives some score - you must be bottlenecking it somehow.
The only thing I can think of at the moment is are both of your PCI-e slots set to 16x?
No, I made no changes between the cards. I seated the first card twice and it did nothing and the new card ran like a dream. No changes what so ever.
can anyone with this new card help me out and tell me something. can the SLI functionality be disabled and enabled without resetting the system?
I need multiple monitors for graphics work that I do within Windows Vista x64, but I also game a good amount. i need to know if the SLI can be switched on and off without resetting. if a reset is required, it pretty much means I can't get this card
Nice to see you on here its bigbri916 from in crysis....
Screen shot issue is a driver thing, and is being addressed by nVidia...

174.60 fixes it.

Holy Sh(i) t!!!
Very high please??!!?
yeah, i'd like to see very high benchmarks at 1600x1200 or 1920x1280
Wow, I just noticed something particularly interesting about this card. According to GPU-Z 0.1.7, each internal silicon substrate is given its own separate BIOS number like so:

Is this..normal?
if you turn aero off, screen shots will work fine. or at least they did for me.
Seems so, mines the same.Quote:
