Mine runs very cool, surprisingly. Even when vmodded to 1.4V. I'm testing my card right now in ATITool at 915/1000 and its approximately 6 minutes stable so far. The hottest core seems to be hitting 60C, although the VDDC's could use some lovin' right now (~84C under load!).

If I had a hat on, I would take it off for you. This is a very impressive Thread with lots of time, effort and money spent on it. Great job. And it's very helpful too.

Wow, I've been waiting for this, but never thought it would be so detailed. It's extremely thorough and very well laid out. Awesome job; I commend you! A great contribution to the forum and OCN community!

Wow, the 4850 OC did great in Crysis and 3Dmark. Thanks for testing.

D3v0, you'll be happy to know, that I'm testing at 950 core and 1000 memory on my 3870x2 Once I hit my limit for 1.4V, I'll be doing a 3DMark06 run

In regards to your spreadsheet, I noticed that the 3870x2 wasn't under Furmark; was that because your system would reboot during that as well?

Yes tehmaggot. Even with temps under control it would instantly crash my PC under furmark. Made no sense, because it was getting enough power and wasn't too hot (75% fan haha). It happened at stock clocks just as fast as overclocked, though all other games/benches ran flawlessly.

That overclock is amazing. You have one super solid piece of price v. Performance

When I first got this card, the first thing I ran after installing drivers was Furmark. Imagine my horror when my baby rebooted! I was soon relieved to see that other apps would run endlessly with no problems, so all was well. I'm running 60% fan speed 24/7 now, which is about as loud as I can tolerate.

I'm very surprised at how well this card is taking the clocks to new heights with the added voltage. I don't plan on passing this baby up anytime soon I'm just about at the 20 minute marker with ATITool!
