In fact it would be really interesting if you set your card to 702 1512 1269 because we have the same cpu at the same clock and the result should thus show how big of a difference ram/m/b makes!
Just for you I did the 3DM06 run at 702/1512/1269 and got a score of 21,130. My OS is not tweaked at all. No tricks, no tweaks. Just a straight up run at those clocks and the CPU clocks in my sig. I could get alot more out of it on XP tweaked, and using some other tweaks, but haven'y got to that yet.

I nioticed a distinct difference in the runs from the higher clocks on the card in my sig. The max FPS in both the HDR tests (Canyon Flight and Firefly Forest) were lower, and in all tests I didn't see the FPS recovery and rebound I did with the higher clocks...it just didn't have that "ummmph" like it does with the higher clocks.
