    An L624 Conroe should go to 3.6...mine is Spi 32M to 3.7....which is still crap, I know.

    If you have a chance...what happens if only 1 PCI-E plug is used? and is there any difference between which plug is filled?

    Thanks

    Well, GTX MSRP is $549 USD so that should be 649 CAD or so. Meh.. NCIX gouges prices like newegg does.

    Sorry for the late reply the load temp for the card is around 75. Regarding overclocking, I am very sorry I am busy these few days I will try to overclock it when I have more free time.
    PS: My ambient temperature is 30-33.

    I don't think so because when I put my hand there I don't feel any exhaust.

    You got my CrossFire score by several points in 3DMark06. Quite clearly the new 3D king is here.

    Four delta fans and -5C ambient temperature.. cold as hell..
    I actually think i caught a cold benching last night..

    The 05 result, demolishes all other on one card.. but of course not approved..
    But, fun anyway.

    I was just about to buy one... But then i noticed this

    http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=352004 Stock video card 2.4 Ghz CPU 8153
    http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=2057985 Stock Video card 2.4 Ghz CPU 13051

    My current video card is almost just as fast.... Is there something going on with your system?

    Edit:

    This looks MUCH better..

    The 8800GTX is very cpu dependent. My conroe is at stock so as all the other part of the system. When I have the time I will go overclock my system and see what is the scores again. BTW any idea what is the speed that guy X6800 is running at?

    Yes, but I have a 4600+ now that runs at 2.4 ghz, and a stock 7950GX2

    and it scores almost just as good as the 8800GTX... something doesnt seem right. If it was scoring 13000 in 3dmark. I'd grab one... But seeing 9800 doesnt really make me think its worth 600 dollars.

    The 7950GX2 is wonderful for the price point, no doubt...but from an architectural viewpoint, its essentially 2 cards with 2 GPU's. The 8800GTX can accomplish more with a single GPU. Whether its worthwhile to you is one thing, but it definitely is the biggest stride we've seen in a couple of years in the GPU arena.

    That's good for a flat stock system. A stock multi-gpu 7950 GX2 turns in 8414 with the added advantage of a stock X6800.

    Source:

    http://techreport.com/reviews/2006q4...o/index.x?pg=9

    You've got very close to X1900 XTX Crossfire power on a single card. Does this card indeed have a high quality angle independent AF mode? I've been hearing that float around.
