Okay here is my amatuer review of this card, to date the highest I have got OC wise has been 441/380 w stock hsf, I am waiting to see if I can get more when I get the arctic cooling Vga Silencer. Now considering my current rig my numbers on 3dmark2001sepro.

432/371

w aa 4

in aquamark, i scored 30,629 again in current rig.

I am pleased with the numbers so far, now when I get my new rig built I should see some far greater numbers than here. :thumbs:

so to conclude for those of us whom have shelled out a little over 200 (us)dollars for this card (depending on the individual card) there is hope for a decent OC.

I have tried 440/380 and it runs fine until the nature test and then begins to artifact heavily so I stop the bench there. I can only guess that I would be in the 11,500 range.

Oh and I am supposed to recieve my artic cooling gear today! :thumb:
some ceramique and that should give me a few mhz more play than before.

Update...

Got the arctic cooling solution today and bam automatically got 450 out of the core... still artifacts on the nature demo for some reason, makes me leary of running it any further at that oc. :thumbs:
