Nice runs buddy. Keep pushing. Make sure to pwn up [p]'s little challenge too. I think I've got some backups that will/should last me a couple weeks or so. The only thing that worries me is a good clocking gtx285

Really nice! My new rig is ordered and should be here mid week!

What are these vmods y'all keep talking about on the GPU's?

Check out the vmod section for vmods bro. Dude, can't wait to see this new build you're into homie, git er dun :D

ASAP brotha!! :D

I've seen those but still don't understand exactly what it does. Is it just a hard wire mod similar to what the EVGA voltage tuner does for their cards?

Yes, in most cases you are simply lessening the resistance and increasing the voltage using a variable resistor. Soldering points are mapped out as well as voltage read points. I"m a noob myself at it. I'm sure V2_V3 is gonna put up a more detailed how to guide.

I figured that is what it was....just wasn't sure. Sweet... might look into that some day.

I'm gonna practice on a cheapo 50 bucks gpu so that if I kill it, its not that big of a dealio. I've got huge paws so its prolly harder for us bigger guys.

I hear ya on that... Never been really good at stuff like that myself.

8600gts blows chunks and the card tops out at 127k in AQ3

Well, that felt like a pretty good waste of DICE, lol :argh::argh::argh::argh::argh:
