915 core is all you can squeeze out on water? No 1Ghz?

well i didnt want to go higher in vcore because of the 570's which were poping. I got scared to be honest, because i went though hell and back to get this 580GTX.

Here's my mobo:

EVGA+X58+Classified3.jpg

Are you using PCIe slots for other components?

Let me know when you get this and how the fitment was.

Thanks!
Here's how it looks under water.. :biggrin:

Serious note, it depends on the version of classy u got.
For me i could not use that gpu as my classy is the E759, and requires slot 1 and 2.

For the E760 and the 4way, u can use slots 1 and 3.


Mine's better :biggrin:

:hmm:

I built one too remember?

Depends how many, if only one then its too big, if two then still a bit Overkill if 3 then i would say its fine.

lolz..

well currently that rig has my second 580GTX!!!
And im very close to cannibalizing it because of Crysis2.

not to mention it has a lot of porn errr 12 hard drives attached to it, along with a gignormous fan amount. :biggrin:

Im testing the SATA Port with user voltages to see how long it goes.

Looks great under water :biggrin:

I got the E760...been sitting here for over a year now lol.

My only issue is where to put the soundcard. If I could use slot 1 and 4, I could sandwich it between the two cards.

I guess the other issue is, how much space is between my PSU and the MB to allow the card to hang down. I'll be taking measurements
