Listen, I don't pass along advice without having some knowledge of the situation my friend, if I mention such things its because I don't want to see guys unknowingly destroy hardware. I know we are in the heat of competitiveness.....its not that I was trying to prevent you guys from getting ahead, its that I wanted my competitition to stay around longer than 1 day:DQuote:

I'm back guys!!! I'm gonna kick ya asses!!!:D
héhé :toast:
Mr icee , it's time to get your iron solder :D
You're not alone :rolleyes:

Nice job misteroadster:toast::up:
But the Captain's a tad curious why it took 300mhz more on the CPU to equal scores? Never-the-less a great effort on your part indeed.
I won't be doing any soldering till my review's done, but damn my man, its one thing to score but the same score:D I may not have to solder, just phase change my cpu to equal your speed or better.
skate, great to hear your cards ok, but still be careful with the volts:)
Onwards and upwards my friends !
Randi:D
Stock cooling? No wonder the card is no longer among us :p: How high did the temps go? I had 80C load under normal vcore and using stock cooling. Now with water and triple radiator I have 41C Max load.Quote:

i can lower my cpu and beat you if you want :)
yeah well i could max run 585 with the door open and maybe 10c room temp, hmm i think after 30min benching the temp was 84c without the door open, what card would you chose between the x700pro or a sparkle 6600gt?Quote:

Mr.Icee I have full faith in you :D
Just realised I don't have enough tubing + anti-algae to drain the setup and change tube length to take it out of the case :(
EDIT: Sparkle 6600GT and then modify the cooling solution, though without the use of arctic epoxy , nudge nudge :stick: Andy :D
Nice nice nice, congrads my friend:toast:
I can't afford to destroy my card before I finish the review, so later this week I'll give the benching more attention. You know I'm just busting you I hope, great job mister !!
Randi:D
PS. I'll take the challenge, lower your cpu to 10x260 and put me away:D
i know you card is a gem ;)
My cpu is a 3000+ , only 9X :D
Thx Mr icee :toast:
This will be an interesting challenge to watch :)Quote:

:D , i hate ebay , and i love those 3000+ :)
I bought them in paris.
There's a lot of computer shops near of my home.
Mr icee, with your VC frequency i'll have a poor score , i assume you're a good nvidia optimiser :toast:
Or The DFI is a wonderfull board.
May be Twice :D
i know the dfi nf4 atleast has a 9:10 multi option. just do 9x289, 9:10 for the ram to be at 260mhz. ;)Quote:

You know Caen right? (Normandy) I spent my summer hols there, and still have friends over there from this school exchange program. I of course take german classes so my french is limited to ":banana::banana::banana::banana: me", "you're ugly", "my name is David", and "I don't love you any more my sweetheart" :) And probably some other vulgar expressions :D
i haven't any DFI , i have a giga K8NXP-SLI :(Quote:

Impressive DDR clock , don't you know ? :D
hmm, i must have missed it, what cooling is on your 6600gt that is allowing it to get its ram up so high?
you've got over 100mhz ddr above me, and i thought my ram was insane. ;)
