Very nice.
Pitty about the c2d a quad would have done very well not too sure if it would have oced so well like the 8400.


What you get with a single card.

BTW was modding the bios easy looking at upping my card a bit as well.

I see 500FSB just around the corner

haha, nice!! :D
Would have been A LOT easier if you had a quad, but then I guess it takes a lot of the fun out of it? :D :twisted: :twisted:

Almost 10K for the graphics! :P

Not sure if of single card, havent run at the cpu oc and one card.

Not sure if you talking about the card BIOS, but if you are yes its very easy, just use nibitor and Nvflash to change the throttle voltage.

Yeah the card bios!!
Hoping it works okay removed the stock TIM and replaced it with coollabartory liquid metal pad and the temp dropped from idle 54 to 43 idle so the mod should do okay with the slightly lower temp....

Congrats.
wow dude your pushing some serious volts through the NB and SB.
Nice though-Shows you what the 780i chipsets can do with a little hard work.
At first I though they were total junk but I've seen people get decent benches with them.

I have my SB on stock volts-Do I need to increase the volts to get any further then effective FSB 1700?
Soon Google will know everything...including how to divide by zero :(

Your SB shouldnt need to be increased as it influences mostly the PCI-E, HDD etc. Your NB is the most important as it takes care of CPU, RAM etc. I increased my SB by 0.1V from stock anyway.

Well that was what I was thinking-SB is separate for a reason but I saw a lot of people clocking higher then 1700 with their South bridge clocked.
meh I will give it a bash-I still have a full warranty and idiots who cant tell if the mobo is actually broken so it's cool.
