There most certainly are!

That's the volt mod for a reference card.

just looking around and it dosent look like amd subs will be worth the time or money so im out

if anyone needs help with the mods let me know. Also dont even think about skipping OCP mod if your going to freeze these cards. No need for smd components you can do ocp mod same as any other with long wires and vr's thats how I do mine. they are butt ugly though. But OCP will be dead all the same.

06 you'll probably still be CPU limited, so I'd suggest the 2500K with the higher clock speed.

Doesn't hurt to try both & keep the higher score. I've started modding cards to get in on this one as well, have a couple gtx & an ultra. There'll be some internal OCN 8800 battle this month, much fun!

Thats really going to be a toss up think the 2600k might win by a hair though. If your going to be freezing your chip I would use the 2500k and youll be able to knock out all of the benches with the same set up. When trying to figure out which is your best card I would go by mem speed not core clock.

Best card for 03 will be a 8800gts 512 from the a3 batch on ln2. Depending on who enters the comp though 8800gtx might take it. I think Der8er will be tough to beat in 03 if he plays
