I am weak :eek: Sapphire X1800XT on order. I found one for $489 at Newegg. From what I hear X1900 is going to be over $600 and I just didn't feel like waiting.

Too many people here with SLI :eek: I'm going to be dead last on the 2k3/2k5 top 5 chart from what it looks like. Whats sad is it would be right below you with SLI ;)Quote:

LOL, thanks for the update. I'm still learning how to OC with this new mobo. Damn thing has so many tuning knobs its driving me nuts. Must have 10 extra memory latency knobs I've never seen before and can't find anything in the mobo manual, or Google search as to what the hell they are and which way to turn 'em :eek: The CPU and memory controller has so many dividers I just gave up and set them all to Auto! :DQuote:

I'm not having luch with the available overclocking utilities yet. Most of the ones people are getting the high clocks with want to mess with voltage or clocks for 2d. I do not want to mess with that. I know someone who is on their 3rd card. ATI told them that messing with 2d did this. It was not designed to overclock as good as 3d.

VERY nice scores Ewitte!
Starting to get overclocking on the video card working. Updated with new 2k1 scores.
