a$$ luckie fella..lol haha ..grrr envy only lol enjoy ur card ..
any artifacts @ the window loading part?

haha...tqtq. No arti whatsoever, feels solid, not a hint of trouble.

Btw I managed to OC to 670/1640/2160 easy...no artifacting with a temp of 81 on load...is this a bit too high?

can even unlock sp? but then i thought 9600GSO is 192bit while 8800GTS is 256bit?

That method only works with mine...I don't know why.

Using my card, the artifact in 03 and 05 actually appear very quickly. If yours can pass game test 1 easily, then it shouldnt be a prob. BTW, 80C+ is dangerous lolz.... this card has an all alu HSF only.

oh, darn. how to reduce the temps ah? switch in a third party cooler?

well..my suggestion here, since u soft mod and voided the warranty, it's time u abandon the original heatsink and get after market ones...Xigmatek battle axe it's quite known for it's HDT, if u wanna know which one best, suggest u to google reviews about the cooler u are interested, also, remember to read from multiple reviews instead of just one, best that u read from reputable sites

accelero s1/auras fridge will be better in this case

since when i become the legendary god adi lol~
btw 9600GSO OC is a good choice even cant mod if compare to 3870 in term of the price

since you succesfully flashed ur card to 8800gts..haha..you're the 1st one to achieve it

ooo
good good~

ur oc result consider stable?

tested 3dMark06 today...only managed to score 8577 points after OC.

Strange I compare with results from the LLY site, his card can get SM2.0 score almost 5K while mine manage 3.5K only. My SM3.0 score and his the exact same. Our CPU score difference by about 300 points only. Why ar?

Added on June 5, 2008, 11:15 amya v stable. Played games no problem. GoW only make the temp go up to around 60+ nia. Only when I use ATITool to detect artifact will the card shoot to 80+ degrees. I think can OC even more but I dun wan the card too hot...for now satisfied ady.

Just bummed that my 3dMark score normal nia. I guess my CPU is really bottleneck...Athlon X2 at 2.4GHz only. I got a prob trying to OC my cpu...maybe u guys can help.

er....how much is the Xigmatek? If add the cost into the graphics card...might as well get a real 8800gt

Added on June 5, 2008, 1:04 pm8577 is a bit too low...is this before or after flashing the BIOS? I got over 10k after modding, at stock speed (600/1500/2000). I'm using X2 @ 3GHz and my mobo is NFM2S...which has 8x PCI-E bandwidth only.

hmm...i dunno what is bottlenecking my system...i'm running at 1024x768 which is the max reso my monitor supports.

8577 score is after flash to 8800GTS and then OC to 670/1640/2160, mobo is Palit N68S with x16 PCIE bandwidth...sienz.

haha mine (3dMark06) is 114xx stock GSO OC to 666/1750/2200. specs as my sig

haha, my bottleneck is my proc lor...urs 3.2ghz...so fast. lol. i have to figure out how to oc my proc ady

I doubt it's the CPU... btw, our scores are using the 1280x1024 resolution.

What was the score b4 flashing the bios?

ok...i go back melaka then switch to my 22" monitor then try again.

dunno...i din test. i just flash to 8800GTS terus, haha.

Added on June 5, 2008, 4:48 pmJust now i OC extra 200mhz (2.5 ghz)...my score jump to 97xx. LOL! It's the proc la...sienz. If I can oc more then I happy dy...but my mobo dunno why, adjusting the K8>NB from X5 to X4 doesn't change a thing so now i'm limited by my HTT speed
