    Lightbulb 9800p @ 480/400 with ghetto aircooling! (pics enclosed!)

    Hey all, just wanted to announce that I've hit 480/400 using... *drumroll* ICE SCRAPER cooling! Yes, that's right - I used my ice scraper (which is essentially just a hunk of metal), strapped it onto my Radeon (9800 Pro) with regular sheated wire, and wouldn't you know it - I went from 456/400 with stock cooling to 480/400 (and I still don't have much in the way of artifacts). Talk about ghetto cooling; Giant II users, eat your heart out!

    Vertices, I WILL have the fastest Nature score on Sharky's... 3dmark coming soon!

    Btw - more replies, ideas, etc, would be appreciated!

    Alright then... Feast your eyes on the SuperScraper 4000!



    I encourage everyone out there to go find a hunk of metal - ANY hunk of metal - some wire, ASIII, and go crazy! See if you can break 500 with ghetto cooling!

    I can't believe that is actually sitting on the core, lol. Dude that is ghetto beyond belief, and trust me I know ghetto. I live in the area surrounding the ghetto during school and that would fit right in.

    I love it

    Maybe so, but I've got a warranty like no other - fully transferrable, 3 year, over-the-counter, no questions asked, if-we-don't-have-your-model-we'll-give-you-the-next-one-up warranty. In other words, if this one gets fried, I just bring it back for another one. If that one gets fried, and the 9900 Pro has just come out... I get a 9900 Pro. Pretty sweet deal huh?!
