QUOTE(LExus65 @ Apr 29 2008, 10:48 AM) sapphire single slot seems to perform quite well......... i'm using the old dual slot version, it got power play feature with stock bios, idle temp is around 39oC @ 50% fan speed, during normal days, hot days it goes up a few degree. u mean dual slot, rite? anyhow i still like single slot, help to expel hot air out of the casing hehe....  |

QUOTE(LittleLinnet @ Aug 25 2008, 03:41 AM) no it is not like the EIST. AFAIK GeCube X-Turbo doesn't come with the power play. flash fixed bios..voila..powerplay feature is ON..it is just inaccurate reading, that's all |
