**** that blue PCB though!

Would look so much nicer if it was black with that cooler

 

[Azza]

Haha don't complain about the colour of the pcb when you have performance like that!

 

[kmax86]

It's a case of priorities and kids, reliable car, family holiday etc take priority over my selfish indulgences.

Arctic have updated their compatibility for a couple of their coolers.

Arctic Accelero Twin Turbo

GTX 640 compatibility

How do you overlock 2 cards at the same time? When you overlock one does it automatically do the second one for you?

136 (L) x 138 (W) x 51 (H) mm

126(L) x 80(W) x 30(H) mm

Hopefully the variable mounting holes will allow it to fit if I buy a reference card.

Actually the width measurement on Zalmans site is wrong, the whole thing cant be 80 mm wide when the fan is 80 mm. I'll measure mine up.

102mm width, the size is fine, hoping the mounting holes will be too.

that is exactly what I meant... if your finances are so tight that after covering the basics you never have any money for yourself...

I have all those costs you speak of yet still find a couple of hundred for myself here and there

I take it none of these will be voltage unlocked though.

It doesn't look like it. They guy on OCN who has one says his is locked. Back to the good ole days of hard volt modding.

I dont want to touch voltages, but i should imagine we can get some nice clocks without.

 

[bhavv]

Lock voltages on a GPU like the GK104 that can easily handle extra volts and overclocks without a problem, allow voltage tweaking on the terribly hot an inefficient GTX 480 and 580s.

Nvidia is lame.

On the other thread I added my 680 heaven benchs at the same settings as what Azza posted? One thing is for sure, This 670 is so close to the 680.

 

[StonedPenguin]

Roll on 670 SLI

 

[Gregster]

Found the scores. Basically the stock 670 scored 1302 heaven points and my 680 @ stock scored 1339 heaven points.
