Actually, I'm using a bit of common sense on it..Originally Posted by LowRun
Time will tell what is needed for that kind of clocks, you're just speculating there as usual
Think about it. If they had THAT kind of headroom, do you think they'd launch them at 750mhz?
Yes, I do not have the card, that is a fact. I do know, however, that the 8600gts, which is less than half the transistors on the exact same process took over 1.7v(IIRC, may have been more) to achieve 1+ ghz on air. How hot do you think a 700 million transistor part would get at anywhere near that voltage on air?
Therefore, while it may technically be speculation, it's going by other parts on the same process. Other parts that should theoretically clock higher due to a smaller transistor count.
In end, there's no need to roll your eyes.
