amazing indeed, but there's only one thing I've found: I was looking on Pricewatch, and the card goes for around $108 now :(

do you know of anywhere in the states where they have it that cheap? I would surely pick it up if it can do what you say it can, lol

what you think :?: :?: :P
I did have this idea elsewhere, but no one picked up on it :(
Sure, do it up man!
I think it would be a neat resource to have, especially for those people who shop and buy based overclocking potential alone.
It could be kindof a more focused/specialized hardware recommendation chart.

actually I couldn't find any eighter :( I looked closer and I found that the link I provided is the TC (turbo cache 64bit) version and the one I tuned up is the GE (gamers edition 128bit), so I wrote the name down correctly but the link at PC cyber is the TC version (from outside they look the same). which one were you looking for? I'm trying to find out which one is actually better (the difference would be only in the mem. bandwith). 128bit sounds better, on the other hand I remember reading on the turbo cache technology that was saying it is a better one :?
but actually I couldn't find any of those in US stores :shock:
the one I gave the link to is the TC version and is available in the lokal (ottawa) store for $62CDN. how about if you can't find any, I would get one myself, do the pipe opening (see if this particular one can do that), OC and if the results are right get one for you or make them send it to you

well I can start providing the info, but to make it a section or a sticky, we need a moderator or admin.
somewhere else I wrote:

with time the flashing, modding database would grow to a considerable size and would allow members to find out which cards are modable, flashable and how to do it, instead of individually trying to look for guides on the internet and asking the same questions again and again.

Well, it probably doesn't need it's own section. People can just post in the ATI or nVidia sections or in the thread.

You can start the thread then we can make it a sticky :)
Lots of great info there though!

woah. nice links. Im gonna read em right now.

Good idea with the sticky. Its really useful for newbies and those of us who don't know about pipeline unlocking etc.




I Like Watercooling. D-Tek Fuzion, MCP655, MCR220
