then perhaps its time for the AIB's to step up and drop the crutches... I dont mind paying more of a premium for such cards (being an 'extreme' overclocker). I can see why most wouldnt want to pay for that, but most, that know anything, wouldnt be buying such a card for 'ambient' overclocking in the first place. There will always be people 'not in the know' that buy a Lightning or a Matrix just for ambient use so AIB's get the best of both worlds that way.
