This is more of a request then a question:<BR>I just bought a Dell p3-700 and bought a V3-3ooo. I am extremly pleased with the system btw. <BR> I wanted to know if anyone has tried overclocking the card w/o an additional fan and how it worked out. How high did you get it and still keep it stable?

Well if you overclock your card w/o a fan then your card will freeze from the heat.<BR>Overclocking your card is very dangerus if you don't cool your card .

I have overclocked the 3000 to 183 and after that , bad **** happens.Even w/ 2 fans.And all you will get is about 3 fps more. Not worth it. Leave it at 163 and forget the fans. Even the ones they say are quiet ,are not.
