Remember guys, they don't care if they sell us cards or not.

In fact, they probably don't want us to buy cards. We're a drop in the bucket and 100 times more likely to send it back dead for a replacement.

They just want some big numbers to go along with an advertising campaign to sell a boat load of cards to gamers. Most of whom won't even put em under water.

Honestly, Retail should be the only hardware allowed at the bot. That would make things fair.

Default Soc 1450/1450

Got bored today and finally listened to Bren and gave 3D a try:

First Ln2 test today this card has potential:



I only did the VID 1.40vgpu mod and it will probably do more on AQ3 and Vantage...

Thumbs up

Thanks guys I guess I got lucky! My very first ever Ln2 vga run...

I didn't even insulate properly because everybody at XS was saying the retail cards where dogs so I was hoping to just hit 1200/1300 and call the night but the card kept going lol... I'm sure with some proper volts and more testing it will hit 1500mhz

All I did was the 1.4vgpu mod:
