*The Official Tech-Forums 3DMark Vantage Rankings*

Give me a couple of weeks ( the cold weather should already be on it's way)... I was able to bump the VCore down to stable 1.411v (1.435v with the vtt voltage), but unfortunately on the FTW3 board, it requires alot of VTT to maintain a stable medium Uncore frequency.
 
Have you got enough PCI-E slots to use a PhysX card?
an 8800 GT or something lying around?

Nah, sorry to say, I'll need another mobo in order to add physX. I would throw in a physX card, but that would drop my second 5970 to x8....we both know thats a no go. I've got a capable mobo picked out, but I wont be able to get it until next month along with the last of the waterblocks I need for the chipset/mosfet. I was thinking of getting a GTX 460 for PhysX, which is overkill....then again that was the whole point of this build...consumer overkill....

Got round to doing the bios update today. All that extra voltage, and all I could do was bump it up a tiny bit :( I think the air cooling is struggling now.
