So does the 4870, are you thinking of the 4850?TD22057 wrote:Overall I'm very glad I got the 260 instead of the 4870:
- Lower idle power usage
- Expels hot air out of the case

The way heatpipes work, there must be a hot side (evaporater) and a cold side (condenser). The liquid turns into gas on the hot side, the gas travels due to pressure/density change to the cool side, condenses back into liquid, flows back to the hot side, where the cycle starts over again. This happ...

Apart from using a PCIe slot instead of AGP there is really no difference in modern cards using ATI or nVidia shipsets, concerning slot and dual head. The terms used for dual head by the companys are the same no matter how they connect (AGP/PCIe) And after having used dual head cards from 2000 till ...

Re: RMclock
I have a newcastle 3500+ on a asus a8n-sli. Crystalcpuid lowers the voltaje and multiplier, but then it does not change again, even with the use of prime95 or cpuburn. RMClock, however, works fine. I can lower to 4x (800 MHz) and 0.85V running stable, and the cpu ramps up when needed to the full 22...
