so um any ideas? Are there old CC drivers I can try that are better than the 6.6-6.8's?
Yep, I even replaced the stock cooler with a zalman vf900...lowered temps across the board by about 20-25 degrees celcius. I began having the...
He's talking about system ram, not the 512 version of the 1800...anyways, I say get the XT AND the ram...don't consider it the same purchase...512...
