it wont void the warranty cause if anything happened,just replace back the stock hsf then send for rma.

uik not evga dude

this is XFX 8800gt Alpha Dog Edition

i just did that to see whether the SSC clocks were great or not..
so late i got the card only at 1a.m kekeke from cycom chap.

but seriously
this is the con everybody forgot to mention or were bribed by nvidia

100% fan speed is freaking loud and whinning.

hmm ok ive tested the limit of this card on stock cooling

its very unfair if i post that results

which i suspect thats what some ppl in VRzone did too...

already found the heatwalls...

now the question is the OVP.

thats rubbish
from the sound and the airflow i would be guessing around 60-70 cfm

hmm u want to know artifact free or just benching clocks??

artifact free is just a bit more than what i posted but that depends on ure ambient temp, casing etc.
but i can confirm to all of u this card has no probs doing the same clocks as EVGA SSC 700/1750/2000 artifact freaking free
cause i did that artifact scanning with no aircon / even fan and inside my case and left it to run for 4 hours from 4 in the morning till 8a.m.

be specific.. the reason i have benched cause i havent figured out yet the PCB's heat spots..

more than 720/2100 i get artifact from Palit with fan speed remian 1.6k rpm and the card is more than 85c already.

theres 3 temps for all the 8800's
the GPU temp, GPu ambient Temp and GPU Core temp

the correct temp is GPU core temp

the two on ATI tools is GPU temp and GPU ambient temp

when ntune works it will show GPU core temp

unless they changed something for the 8800gt drivers then sorry .

normally Ati tools will read gpu core temp

hmm dunno leh my everest cant read the 8800gt temps

on 8800gts/gtx/ultra
u can get all this info on everest

core clocks
shader clocks
mem clocks
Gpu temps
gpu core temps
mem temps
Gpu ambient temps

and usually ati tools will use GPu core temps

only can confirm the temps once the new ntune comes out
till then i remain skeptical on the temps reported

as u can see in my two post
its posting gpu temps
and not gpu core temps
hmm look at the maximus formula thread
there should be some examples there

found out something

on PCIE1.1 mobo's

i can bench 745/1838/2100
but on maximus only 720/1800/2100

been wasting the whole day
trying to do a sli hack or patch

so far cannot work on the X38

for longer lifespan and less heat and less power consumtion.

i use my QX6700 run at 2.4GHz with 1.02vcore prime stable

me also student.

holy crap nuts...
i can't get my xfx 8800gt to go more than 680 core.  load temp is at 82. but i tried 700 and i get artifacting and also in games.  tried it on crysis.  crap nuts.  any pointers anyone?

that is the newest driver unfortunately... 

anyway...tried running 3dmark06 in vista 32 bit
700/1750/2000

my score is 10,000. 

Hi everybody,

I bought a Zalman FC-V9 heatsink, Zalman Super Thermal Grease and Vizo Copper Heatsink today for my Zotac Geforce 8800GT earlier today.

Apparently it does fit, sorry I was too excited I did not take any photos of my graphic card with the new cooler on.

Idle temp ranges from 39c to 43c and load is about 50-51c.

The best part is that even at the highest speed for this cooler, it's no where as annoying as the stock cooler @ 60-70%.

Cheers,

Ken

i wouldnt get those they preform similar to the thermaltakes

when the did the comparison with the 8800gtx stock cooler and the ND4 i think for the gtx
the difference was minimal...

go water dude..

they actually work!!!
kekeke never did work well on the gts/gtx
but on this card brought down the temps by 4C

not bad leh

i put one at the top
and one at the bottom

The Fatality cooler is nothing compared to the HR03. Better get the HR03. U shud be seeing about 20C drop in both idle n load temps.
Can SLI 1. See here. 

my msi 8800gt has the similar temperature with yours.
default speed 660/1900, idle at 60 fulload at 90.
i use rivatuner to set the fan speed always on 68%, current temp idle 55, fulload 80-85.
