    Bought one today.

    Default clocks 430 / 1300, benches 3DMark 05 and played BF2 for 2 hours having notched it straight up to the BFG and XFX OC Speeds of 490 / 1300. Seems that spending the extra for the OC out of the box is unecessary. Will see how far I can push it next week.

    Only downer is my 2nd rig is my only pci-x rig and is a lowly P4 3.0 530J, while my skt 478 4.1ghz rig can't help my benchies :O(

    2nd rig has a crappy MSI 915P combo mobo which won't OC for sh!t either...........roll on my X2 and DFI Lanparty NF4 SLI gear arriving next week.

    Will use FRAPS and get ya some figures when I have time.....I have a feeling that my fps will be CPU limited by the sh!tty P4 3.0ghz 530J I have. I think I'll be able to give you a better comparison figure when I get it hooked up to a better CPU.
