    Early week pre release retail but its still a dud to my standards......

    Honestly its luck of the draw, I have run through quite a few chips....problem is you need a well balanced chip for 3d.....the worst core will always be the limiting factor. We have one chip that has insane NB ( IIRC we can get 4700 out of it on gigabyte ) but the cores are weak...

    My good 3d chip has great cores and a cruddy NB.........about 3800-3900 max for 3d benching. I'm guessing based on the max I can valid that 6.2 may be pushing it for 3d.....we have already benched 6.1 solid on it however...It also requires quite a bit of volts.....Most chips I have used do not.

    I will say its far from a cherry as the rumours would say though.....I need 1.85v for 3d......

    Seems the nice chip I used in austin was preferable to 1.725....Big diff IMO

    I'll bet money there are better out there in retail channels right now I would venture a guess to look for week 0911 and newer....

    I've got no strings to hold me down.
    To make me fret, or make me frown.
    I had strings but now I'm free.
    There are no strings on me
