| May be he doesn't want the world to know the 11.19 Volt reading. He took quite a few pain killing pills to get that over.

| just waiting for the right chipset I read the article and as soon as i saw the one 1280 graph i was thinking it's bandwidth locked, it seems like the cpu and gpu race is like a yo-yo as soon as one is locked by the other something comes along and bounces it back the other way. Like in this case the paper launch is days a way, so you seemly have to run this test again with a the new nvidia dual pci-e card board hey if you going to spend 800 on cooling you may as well waste it on two 6800's 150% increase in gpu power should cover the 15 - 20 percent cpu increase. |

those guys have unlimited $ and time to devote to benching it seems. Not to throw a wet towel on anyone's parade, but I remember when I had the #1 benchmark score in 3dmark2000. That was when GTS Geforce first came out and before volt modding and super cooling gpu's was needed to reach first page. Now it's all about throwing tons of $$$ into benches and of course the talent to tweak tweak tweak your way to the top. | |
