I just recently upgraded from 9800 to X800 XT All in Wonder. It allows itself to some degree of over clocking. But it seems that u can push memory quite further. But it gets pretty hot prolly 65-70 C. For the 9800 I used the silent Zalman gpu cooler with the fan. And that def gave me more room play with MHz-wise.
Does anyone know if I'll be able to fit it on the X800, cause the stock cooler just isnt making?

I've got a VF700 on my X800XT (not an AIW), the AIW may have a few components that might interfere with the installation of your VF700 but I doubt it. My X800XT also runs very warm, I'm not even sure what load temps are while gaming, but it reaches ~65-70C while ATITool is scanning for artifacts, and that's with my VF700-Cu (on 5v though), so I'm assuming it gets even higher while gaming.
