    Ditto to this. Opened my brand new one last night for virgin Gulfie boot and it looked used. Voltage wouldn't respond well to AB.

    Sigh...back to modded vanilla card until I can figure out what to solder to this and where...

    Hence the insane air numbers, and ofcourse, we also have to add to that George`s superb skillz

    Nice that you already got 1475 on the core!

    I'm getting my card today. But i will only air test it. I know its not build for that. But so far i have had no luck with my cards non of them would do 1000 core stable on acceptable voltages.

    So i will give the lightning a try. I hope it will do 1050+ on the stock heatsink.

    These are looking amazing compared to other 5870's on the whole. I was trying to find them in stock on online e-tailers but couldn't... Anyone know where to get them? just curious..

    Sorry to thread Hijack.. Amazing numbers Hipro! These card's plus your skill = amazing... Bringing back the 3dmark2001 dothan days to memory

    Is it a coincidence that your wifes pc is called Uranus?

    You need a special version of Afterburner, which isn't publicly available.

    .. one would think that with the release of Fermi.. the Extreme Afterburner would be released so more folks can have their luck beating 480 scores. I mean, after performing vDDCI, OCP/phase, OCP and capping... the GPU is for bench only..MSI need not worry about blown GPU's. Oh well... I'll keep waiting anxiously, and enjoying what I can from others results.
