I'm at 3.6, add 2k and we have 5.6k, that's 1.4k more then gold cup holder who is having much higher memclocks. I doubt that much of a boost, at best 100~200points. I did a bit of research

Owned one of these too, wass planning to modify it, but then it got sold

Whoa, I just gained 200 points from lowering the memory timings from 2,5-4-4-8 to 2-2-2-5. Because of the small mem-size (16MB), higher System memory bandwidth makes the GPU scale better? Wouldn't have thought that. DDR2 would indeed give a nice extra boost. 66 points short of gold.

AM3: 4193

Would that be good for cooling 4 5870's ?

jmke · 3rd November 2009, 19:37

for €90 it's worth a try

geoffrey · 3rd November 2009, 19:37

Very probable not:

Refrigerating capacity: 180 watts at 20° C outlet temperature of cooling medium

Unless you're thinking of using them idle

I'll ask PJ about the CPU, otherwise it will have to be the E8600 at 3Ghz...

Nah, you'll probable end up with a dead board, they suck in clocking and I'll probable start experimenting, which is no good thing.

Why not hook up to the 5V line with a VR in between?
