I was doing a little lurking on another forum, and it looks like the 7800 might have a problem with being chilled.
Edit: The 31K wall has been broken. Working on 32k now ;)
Yea it locks up below 35c, which isnt exactly chilled I might have trouble with that in the winter actualy.
But there is a new bios to fix it, its just not available to the general public yet.
Hmmm.....looks like you know the forum I was lurking on :cool:Quote:

It will.
positive 35 c is even reachable on some water.
speedfreaks scores should be 6800gt sli'd not one single card. Thats the only thing ive noticed at first glance.
Thermo, in response to your pm, i think its your video clocks, nature is verrrrrry gpu dependent in comparision tothe rest of 3dmark01.
also, i think thermo's card is incorectly listed as well.
OK Thanks for taking a look. Only way I see to pick it up at this point is to hack the bios. It just dies if I take it much faster. The card never really heats up at all, so my gut says it needs some more power.Quote:

Well, now I'm sure....First run, base settings with the card cold to the touch and reporting 36c 25456. Repeat run, warm card, 41c reported, 29269. Damn good thing this was a summer launch. Time to start razzing NVidia I guess. 35c is not that cold and well within the PC opperating specs.
Your freezing at 62f? Man thats like perfect weather. Now in the wintertime when i did air benching my ambient temp must have been below 35f. I was freezing. FLutie and i in my basement with thick wool socks boots hoodies and our leather jackets. and ski caps. Still cold, then our 3rd friend was there and we wouldnt give him ajackaet, he jsut *****ed and laid under the blankets.
Anyway if the 35c bug isnt there that is excelent. Only one way to find out man, can you try it colder?
