too funny

yeah mine runs stock at 740 so I need what a couple mhz to beat you on gpu core lol. I grabbed the xfx alpha dog.
Ihaven't had a chance to oc yet. But I tell ya, as an htpc card, tv veiwing is the best I've seen yet. woohoo!
I've only had my e6750 up to 3.52 Ghz. Need better ram to hit higher. It hit 3.2 with stock voltages ... sweet. And no temp problems, never goes above 53C with a zalman 8700 set at 50%. Doesn't seem to like that oc since I've updated all the drivers.
