I had the same idea when the Classy went down, but it was a no go.

Since I cannot use a multiplier above 25 without throttling I am left wondering how much if any performance I am missing out on.
What multi are you guys getting the best overclock with?

Run the cpu test in Vantage for something you havent seen before...
Are you talking about the extra cones and loops in the Crash N Burn test? Only one more set than when I had dual GTX295's, but suprising to see on just the CPU alone.
I took out one of the 5970's while I'm getting the CPU up and running. Here is stock:
I am very surprised at the low temps. Running at stock, it idles around 20C. One thing I noticed through, is that some of the cores (#2 and #4) run as much as 10C higher. Has anyone seen how the cores are laid out on this chip? Post up a link if you have an article on it please.
I found this pic of the IHS removed:
http://itfanat.com/6855.html
Shows I have the TIM lined out correctly (along the length of the cores).

I think you will find that it "flash" heats pretty good when you have it cranked up.
