Excellent benching...but I still don't see 25k :D

Thanks guys.

@ Massman: how high did it go "AS IS" - No volts, no nothing?... :)

@ Gatman: :D Not yet.... :p:

Greatly done Hipro 5, impressive card :eek:

Great start with Lightning George! Those 05 / 06 runs are very hard with those clocks, but maybe not with that card :D

Well, I did not expect to see anything less from you :up:

I could run 1000 core at 1.165V on stock air easy, but then it seems like temps were holding me back.

Great clocks on that card George :D

Nice to see these in the wild... got to see one up close in Taipei but have yet to get my hands on any, darn Chinese New Year. :cool:

Look who's back? :D

You've got the toys now find the time man! Show them how it's done once more cause it's been far too long. ;)

Is there 1.54 vGPU I am seeing there or are you just happy to see me? :)

So I take it voltage in unlocked for these beasts.

Dont think so, just a special version of MSI afterburner ;)

Very nice scores and clocks, guess 1500core is in range ? :)

I'm just happy to se... euh, yes ... 1.54V :sofa:

It's an overclockers version of the afterburner software. Tbh, I'll have a look to adjust the known .bat file ... almost same IC controller with I2C :D

A...the overclocker version I have been asking for months but I never got. How sweet :)

P.S. I know, we all know, everybody knows....show us that 1500MHz GPU allready :D

Couldn't agree more! :yepp:

Give 'em hell George :up:

Awesome cards. I need one when they come out :D

1500MHz + GPU and Gulftown will be nice. :D

nice george
ive gotta do some comparison soon with Giga vs MSI non-ref 5870s

so you guys are getting 1.1GHz air cooled sounds very impressive indeed........

[edit]are you guys having trouble with the new afterburner and 10.1 drivers??

congrats, incredible numbers, loving your vga :up:

very impressive cards
GO tri crossfire :)

ok good i thought i was going crazy hehehe

No ... I mean "what kind of troubles do you expect?"

Because ... there might be troubles I have, but don't know that these are troubles.

(or something like that)

Am I the only one who is convinced that 10.1 (at least for single GPU benches) sux BIG time?
