**** CRAZIEST PRE-ORDER SPECIAL EVER! MSI GTX 670 POWER EDITION ONLY £199.99 Inc. VAT!!!! *****

Just installed mine. All seems good. Only seems to be boosting to 1150 in Heaven/Valley at stock ( i think... that is what gpuz read the core clock as whilst they are running anyway). Is that bad or fairly normal? I never get lucky and get good overclocking chips :(. Does this mean it wont overclock much?

I must confess i dont really understand the boost thing. If i over clock the core clock, will the boost then be higher still?

Anyway, its a great card. Sooo quiet and runs very cool. Didnt go above 65 degrees in Heaven or Valley and i couldnt even hear the fans ramp up at all!

I am coming from a reference GTX 480 so this is a bit of a shock to the system! Idles at near 30 degrees. I am used to nearer 50 with the 480!

My Valley and Heaven scores seem to be about on the money as well so all seems ok. Do these scores look good/correct? (system is a p67a gd53 + i5 2500K at 4.3GHZ,16gb ram)





Very happy for what will be under £180 after topcashback and selling the game! Quite a big step up in performance from my 480 as well!!

Click to expand...

To overclock you just turn up the power in MSI Afterburner or similar, and the card will automatically overclock depending on temps.

Keep an eye on the temps, they are a big factor in what MHz you will reach with these cards..!

Happy with mine. Auto-boosts to 1202Mhz and runs about 55 degrees with ultra pre-set on Bf3 @ 60fps solid with vsync enabled. Heaven was running at about 33fps with everything on maximum all off a single card. Im at work so cant provide any screenshots.

Should keep me going until the prices drop next year with the current nvidia's and new AMD's.
