I seriously love the cooler design on that 6950, is that the 2gb ver? I have two of those and they look damn sweet inside my black 600T with window

Yeah, 2GB. Shaders unlock too, but I've just got it @ stock. While I kinda like the design, I much prefer the reference cooler for air, but these cards are super easy to watercool, as the memory get zero cooling now, and the VRMs have their own separate heatsink.

I have a water coold 6950 2GB. I run it at stock shaders and overclocked to 900/1400. Seems plenty powerful. Overclocking with shaders unlocked isn't quite stable enough, but 1408 is good enough.

I agree the reference coolers definitely can push farther as the reference @100% fan speed is very fast and loud. I am not a fan of the plastic etc. of the non-ref and it feels like a pos but I love the look of it overall.

HA! hard to keep things neat in a 24x40 room.

Now, if I took the full picture, maybe you could say that, but it's actually pretty tidy. All the wires and stuff on the right are from my guitar rig. Gotta have the guitar close by to keep me amused while benching!

Please do, until I find a good app for turning my tablet into a keyboard/touch pad I might grab something like that for when I'm to lazy to reach to my mouse ( my rig is in my bedroom by my bed )
