Does anyone know if this is the overclocked version.. zzf doesnt list details.. No pics of the box or included software, either does the asus site. both very, very poor webwork. Not the best way to sell $550+ product.

Asus, has some of the poorest technical writers I've ever seen. So yeah, it's almost hopeless.

That's why I buy MSI. At least for Mobo's that is.

Here's what I've found out about it.

It looks like it is OC'd. The core goes up to 700MHz and the RAM at 1.6GHz. That's an extra 75MHz on the core and an extra 50MHz on the RAM.

Well if you click on manufacturer product link, then on specifications, it shows the speeds as 625/1500. So unless that's a mistake on that page, looks like it's the standard XT.

By golly, you did it M0RPHman.

Which do you trust now? Forget Asus.

i guess it looks to be the standard reference card. the XT really needs to spice things up a bit.. i may as well just go for the cheapest oem card if they are all just reference.

this is standard, just look at the cooler

There is that Asus OC'd XT. Except no one knows when it's going to show up.

Asus actually makes great video cards & very often OC higher then most, but that looks to be a reference design so its not worth paying much extra for the brand name, maybe a few dollars yes.. but thats it.

And it will probably be $4000, as typical of any Asus product.
