Reminds me of the 2900xt i bought... It's a winner, but smelled like maple syrup when I unpacked it... :laughing:

i cleaned them with alcohol they still smell but not as bad, but im not a smoker and hate the way they smell, it makes my tummy hurt :laughing:

okay i looked but didnt find any volt mods on the msi cards :wtfsign:

Are they non-reference? Typically the 9800gt mods are pretty much the same as teh 8800gt... non reference will ahve to mapped out by our mod guru's...

Get a few good pics of the controller chips and create a thread in the volt mod section. Someone will know where the data sheet is and how to read it. :thumbsup:

I finally got a little bench time and pulled a decent '03 .... after failing miserably at Vantage.

Looks like my "cherry" card isn't so cherry these days, but still managed 1220 core.

Right on, man. I'm glad to see you back at it! :thumbsup:

1200 core is still pretty damned awesome... You just gotta shake the dust off and you'll get back up to where you were ;)

I had a fail session tonight. Only ended up with 1 sub for 5 whole boints. :blush:
Tomorrow's another day.
