I just installed my eVGA 6800 GT AGP that I bought from Jack222. It detected optimal at 428/1.15 with the 71.89 released drivers. This thing is great. My wife is going to have an even harder time to get me to stop playing games.

That's a nice OC, have you tried pushing it a little more? Most of the time the optimal frequencies tend to be conservative, as long as your temps are good.

I can't wait to push this card. It is idleing at 52C, so cooling is the next step. I am waiting on the Stasis Thermal ICESTORM for the 6800 series. I will probably go with the Stage 2 using the 60mm blower. I might just say to heck with it an go Stage 3 with the 80mm fan and go as high as I can. I am just waiting for consumer9000 to post that they are ready for sale.
