I need to go buy a 9v battery for my dmm, my number 2 pencil is already sitting here.
There is reason for this. It took me poking around with a DMM and Rattle flashing his card like nuts.

We both have Visiontek cards. Mine clocks to 700/1100 just fine, however his barely touches 650/1050. I've been considering pencil modding mine tonight just for fun as well as poking around with my DMM...found something strange. I noticed other people posting voltages such as Idle: 1.10vGPU & Load: 1.15vGPU...I was getting 1.05vGPU // 1.10vGPU respectively. Now surely 0.05v isn't that much, but it's enough to get those few more mhz stable. Rattle had flashed to the MSI BIOS and can magically get his card to run 700mhz, 685mhz stable VS. the Visiontek (BBA) BIOS which couldn't do that. I decided to flash mine to MSI as well and well guess what? The voltage is different. Idle: 1.07vGPU & Load 1.14vGPU on the MSI BIOS. So there you have it if your Visiontek card clocks lower than other branded cards...check your vGPU's.
