January 26, 200521 yr Well, I'm trying to avoid a serious artifact problem. Don't wanna go overboard so much that I dimish the visuals . The reason I said "safely" is because those are the highest settings (400/850) I could get it in the manual clocker...thing...without the tester failing, and I want this baby to last as looooong as possible. Plus, I'm already running up at around 60-65 C as is, since I've only got one fan, not that sweet dual the GT or Ultra have. Maybe I should take off the side...and get my desk fan...hmmm... And I thought the production people turned off the other 4 pipelines on the 6800 vanilla because one, or all of them were faulty...and the use of them could, in fact, damage the card. :ph34r: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've never seen any standard 6800 series card clocked that high. You should really bring it down a bit if you want the card to last. I find that you'll get better performance if you unlock the extra pipelines and shaders (That is if you haven't done it already...). It offers a 33% increase in performance when operating at the same clock speeds.
