    I thought the 6800U put out more than 80 watts. I'd like to see the temps on the cards - and I might have to cancel my Maze4 plans. Oh yeah, and I almost forgot: benchmarks too. Silly me.

    not to rain on your parade or anything Opp, but a stock 6800 ultra puts out 110w, i think you need 172w's at least

    try to use some sort of ram sink on the mem.
    I had lost about 40 mhz from the ram when I removed the ram sinks from my 6800 in the past, then when I took the mem think off, and filed it down, to get a much tighter fit on the ram, I gained another 20-30 mhz or so by having it tight on the ram.

    Remember 6800's have Safe, 2D and 3D modes of clocks/voltages.

    Flash to ASUS BIOSes, fixes thermal issues with cold.
    I was under the impression that it had been proven with a MM that voltage is a constant ~1.4v, no separate 2d/3d or throttle volt....?

    MSI board, right? Looks to have GREAT spacing between cards... that's the ONLY place that DFI fell asleep with their NF4 series....

    But the MSI Plat. and Diamond are the same as the DFI.. I have a Diamond and use its SLI bridge on DFI at the moment as I am modding a DFI Ultra into a SLI.

    110w consumption guys, not 110w heat output, and not all from only the core.

    All along the watchtower the watchmen watch the eternal return.

    a 6800ultra does no where near 110watts according to that.

    fugger was telling me the other day about a trick that works for him.

    I think it went something like this.

    get the cascade alittle cold, like -20, boot up, and max out the voltage, let it get into windows and clockgen your way up.
    the extra voltage, and overclocking from windows up while your not at your max coldness, may do the trick to keep you just warm enough to run the CPU without windows going nuts.

    That's a shame about the 3500venice I guess you'll have to rely on the trusty fx55
