Nothing, it just looks nicer than a bare PCB.

The screws are totally different and the end of the plate will not work. The end of the plate uses stand offs that mount from the heatsink side. I don't think it's gonna work unless you wanna start modding the back plate too.

Hey guys, I'm kind of a noob at overclocking. I've just been increasing the core clock steadily and doing one Heaven run each time, looking for artifacts. I'm kinda scared to run Furmark on my new expensive GPU. How do you all do it?

Guys just wondering generally what the MAX oc has been when using stock voltage.

I have a reference card with stock cooler so i don't want to change my voltage at all. I'm just looking for a guideline/estimate of how much i can get this card over 1125/1575 Mhz.

thanks
