Ordered an xfx 68nu for a friend at work, Also ordered a zalman 77cu to go with it, He wanted me to put the zalman on it for him so he came over after work, We just got done playing with the card. Pretty sweet numbers, Out of the box it idled at 56° and loaded around 72°, Completely stock it benched a little over 9200 in 3d03, Unlocked the pipes and shader and ran bench again, a little over 10,200. Installed the Zalman and dropped temps to 46° idle and 58° under load. Then played with some O.C.'s. A little over 12,200 in 03 with no hint of artifacts, I told him he has got him one sweet little card!

Nice score! Have you tried upping the gpu volts to get more out of it? With temps like that i would give it a shot.

We didn't tweak the bios at all, I imagine a little extra voltage might have gotten it a few extra pts. We didn't max it out last night, Long night at work and pretty tired. He's going to let me know how it does in his rig later today. The default settings on that card were 325/750, Didn't know XFX cranked up the memory settings.
