I noticed that outpost.com has the BFG 6800 OC for $250.00. For those that ordered the BFG 6800 OC from outpost.com, did the BFG 6800 OC have the revision 2 heatsink (revision 2 has the dual fan/copper-nickel combo)? I was wondering because I was a bit skeptical about outpost.com's picture link they had because when you click on it, it doesn't show the picture of the product due to a corrupted link.

I am asking because I want to order this BFG 6800 OC IF it has the dual fan heatsink as opposed to the single, small heatsink of the first version. Thanks.

Ya I bought my BFG from outpost.com and it does have the dual fan heatsink. I was also able to unlock the extra 4 pipelines and 1 vertex shader sucessfully.

Yes, I bought mine from Outpost about a month ago and it has the updated heatsink/fan. Unlocked the extra pipes/vs easily and bumped my 3dmark03 score from 9200 (stock) to 10202.

Buy it!

BTW: I have seen two 6800OC's from Best Buy with Blue PCB/dual fans that failed the 4th quad pipe activation & had crappy overclocks. Have seen one that was successfull. The two that failed were different PCB #s 056 & 088 i think. The one that passed was 056.
