As you know we have NVIDIA's new monster GeForce 8800 GTX in our test lab and as we've already shown you in our overclocking preview the card has proven to be a really good enthusiast card, despite all vicious rumors and the large amount of transistors which many thought would make it hard to handle. Kinc has shown that the card overclocks well and now even that it overclocks really well. As the first person he has managed to push the card over 900MHz GPU, from 575MHz at stock, while the memory was running at 1240MHz up from 900MHz. That GDDR3 would be an disadvantage has proven to be somewhat of an overstatement.

With a "really sucky 6800 on air" he has still managed to reach some really nice results. This is just the start of things though and more are to be expected, not the least during DreamHack at the end of the month. 52,306 points in 3DMark 03 and an fps at 920 in the nature test from 3DMark 2001. The reason for this was a core running at 917MHz, with memories at 1221MHz. 100,000 isn't feeling that far off now.



Specifications
Core 2 Extreme X6800, air-cooled
ASUS P5W64 Professional
Corsair Dominator PC8888, 3-3-2-4
XFX GeForce 8800GTX 1.65Vcore/2.15Vdimm @ -75°C load cascade
Cooltek 600W

Apparently I wasn't fast enough: 939MHz now Wink

Were the syringes used to get di-electric under the IHS?

What were the syringes used for?

Very Nice by the way

Thank you Smile

That is a 2-component thermal glue used to mount the heat sinks on the voltage regulators.
