This thing OC's nicely. With fans at 100% it doesn't go above 55*

i wish my card would stay at temps like that. it gets hella hot for a 8600GTS

you think theres much room left in it for faster clocks?

Did you have a gts before that?

It crashed at 850 core. The temps weren't too much higher, but the card just couldn't do it. At 100% the thing is extremely loud. I'd add it to my water cooling loop, but I'm going to step up when the next card comes out and that'd void my warranty.

No, I had two 9600GT's in SLI that I returned. My score with the 9800GTX is higher than I could get those, though I did have issues with SLI.

the 9800GTX is starting to look interesting to me. if you compare the 9800GTX and the 8800 ultra from this anand review (http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3275&p=6) you can see they basically are equal.

i've used my step from 8800 ultra to a gx2, but i'm thinking about just selling the gx2 as soon as i get it, and gett a 9800gtx
