    very sweet. I am surprised to see the memory being able to go to 1100 via overdrive. I thought the limit was 900?

    ATI's 3dmark scores are meaningless since this card cannot outperform an 8800GTS 640 80% of the time. hence my theory of ATi optimizing for 3dmark........who cares about some meaningless number when it cannot perform in game accordingly to the benchmark.

    I agree. If he was to modify the sink in any way, it would not be. Besides, I really doubt that fan is doing anything that important for a mild 850/1100 oc anyways.

    I see what I see, and you see what you see. I can't make you see what I see, but I can tell you what I see is not what you see. Truth is, we see what we want to see, and what we want to see is what those around us see. And what we don't see is... well, conspiracies.

    He said on stock cooler, and that is on the stock cooler.


    If you have a cooling question or concern feel free to contact me.

    I kinda get what Kunaak is trying to say....Stock cooling generally entails only using the stock cooler, without forcing more air into it, most people that use stock mean just that.
    "Stock" not a fan forcing air into the blower on the "Stock" cooler

    Why is the score so low?

    I don't have quad core
    I don't have 8-pin power so i can't overclock my card

    you have quad core
    and you have massive overclock

    but my score is 500 higher than you?

    You can't. If you don't have an 8 pin pci-e on your PSU, you'll have to use 2 x 6 pin, in which case you are limited with overclocking. Basically, if you want the most from this card, you MUST purchase a new PSU if your current one doesn't have an 8 pin.

    also CrossFire support is now natively supported by the AMD ATI Radeon HD 2900-series; the external CrossFire dongle is a thing of the past.
