it is pretty sweet deal if you have a water cooled computer


Edit: i just ran some benchmarks and ocing....i got it up to 670/1100 but couldnt really go any hire...i wonder if it is a voltage thing...my card doesnt even flinch at those speeds and stays at about 43c....that is why im kinda thinking its a voltage thing and not a heat realated element althought with the speeds i had im getting 12950 for my 3d mark 06 score so its quite impressive with just a single card but i wish i could play with the voltage to really chech this thing out...i know it could do more....i went from stable 650/1050 and about 12300 on my 06 score...anyone know if adjusting voltages on here if possible???

Cool (excuse the pun). nice 3d score indeed....i'm sure someone has explored volt mods...there was that link a few days ago to that GTX running at 1007mhz core...there is no way they did that at stock voltage. Your temps sure arn't a problem now.

I used it to the edit the stock clocks on my 7800GTs when I had them. I also used it to volt mod a 7800GT through the BIOS, but I dont have an 8800 card so I dont know how much help I could be.

The waterblocks should be available soon here for those who want a card other than BFG. Looks like it may work out to be a little cheaper to buy seperately too, considering the card prices are dipping down around $600.
