Hi all.

Is the asus voltage tweak overclocking worth it over a reference card design.

I don't like the new asus cooler but i don't wont to lose fps if i can't overclock high.

Whats the differences overclocking a normal card then with asus voltage tweak.

Thanks.

id say so. You could just get a referenece card and flash it with an saus bios though if you dont mind the hastle.

I'm running the new asus with the new cooler. it looks fine to me
Plus when it's on its side in the case, you dont see it lol
I think it's an exellent card. only issue i have, is the new smart doctor don't go past 900. other ways round it thou.
