Voltage is very helpful when you go full water cooling like my rig. I can max out voltage with Trixx and still stay below 60C on both of my 7970's which helps achieve higher clocks. Could do even better if I slapped another 240 rad in there but things are a bit cramped as is...

I have been playing Crysis 2 for about 2 hours now and i'm getting 80-130 fps on all max setings at 1080p? I didnt know you could run this game with such high fps? My temps are still 59-61c at 1200mhz core clock 1600mhz memory clock. I did limit my frames to 120 after i seen it going over that. I'll download fraps later and try to record a video i guess. Other then that i dont know how to capture it and show you guys it wont let me screen shot for some reason.

Just to be clear it sits at 100-120 most the time. Only in some huge explosions will it drop down to 80 and it might have dropped to 75ish once but only breifly.

Extra video memory probably doesn't matter unless you're doing multi-monitor. Windows Vista and Windows 7 will hog roughly half of your system RAM for shared video memory anyways.

Do you have the high def textures installed and DX11 Pack?
