    The 7x scores are coming from an FX53 running stock with crappy 2yr old RAM inside a shuttle. Not too bad.

    I've tried ATiTool, Rivatuner with no luck. Neither can find the card. I guess it is time to order the Storm watercooling kit with the new Swiftech GPU block to see what I can get done.

    Funny thing is it never moves off 63c with my lowflow block that has four other blocks in the loop. Water temp didnt' go up 2c either.

    Why dont you try ATI Tool or Powerstrip ? You can set the max possible clock with those so you're not limited.

    hmmm

    You sure the ole "shim too high" issue isnt biting you?

    63C seems nutz for water, even lowflow. Both my X850's had to have the shim's removed, they were not making solid contact with thier heatsinks.

    Both of the programs have not been updated and will not see a X1XXX type cards and will not alow any overclocking options.

    I say give ita another week for the update to come in.

    Powerstrip will overclock your video card but it has to be running to keep the overclock so it isn't as good as for 3dmark but i'm sure the extra overclock will help out.

    Have you tryed Ati Tray Tools ? May be that one has some support ?

    And withe the temp. I had the same with my X700. Would not go below 52c. Strange ting. I think a buggy sensor. Of the heat is not transfered well trough the chip.

    If thats so i need support for the card. And because almost nobody has one. U cant make the program work with it. If u don't use the drive u must find a other way arround and that takes time.

    Any more updates? Someone suggested scouring the registry to try to tweak CCC to allow higher clocks.
    oh man

    Answer for ya master... Depends on the application. In some yes, in some no, like how it always is between ATi and NVidia products.

    ATI X1xxxhas more image quality options (especially angle-independent AA), but 7800GT/X is available now. ATI X1xxx series will have a greater lead in the future, with games with long shader scripts.
    oh man

    Eh shadow, that's a "possibility", it cannot currently be proven.

    Also, future games will use radiosity, and therefore ATi will be at a disadvantage.

    Rick you need to email W1zzard directly. I think he is working on a beta version of atitools that allows for overclocking the x1800xl.
