It's nice to be back, you guys need to ditch Overdrive
Stock air/voltage, 100% fan speed with fan header trick
Even better in '01. Not sure what happened to these Drago's, I'll figure it out tomorrow.
BIOS overclocking and DI this weekend

No problems here with 03. New personal record and I'm just starting.
BTW: this is the kind of picture wanted for the Wall of Fame.
Wow, very nice! What are you using for your CPU cooler?

Really fast for stock clock voltage and cooling. Are those gpu-z reading right??? 900 on core and 1200 on memory??? What brand of card do you have?

I usually get the black screen error, just downloaded the vista hotfix, 4870 ran FINE for over 4 hours, shut down and rebooted and BAM to black screen and loud fan.

I like 8.7 more than anything else. Seems a lot more stable.

Yes, things sure do seem to be more stable.
What the heck is with the option to try WoW???
I want driver installs to be quick and seemless, not sit there and pick and choose through what I want to load. wtf? And I could have sworn I said no, and a WoW icon still showed up on my desktop. Weird.
Anyhow. Who's got the lowdown of the best place to learn about modding these cards. I'd rather hear it from you guys than search google. Anyone done any modding on these cards yet?
Does laying two 120mm fans on top of your x-fire setup help at all???? Just to remove a bit of heat from the pcb side? I realize it wouldn't be as efficient as some good waterblocks, but I've seen it done with some success. Actually it worked fairly well on a SLI setup I had once.
