No sagging at all. The 8800GTX has a very very solid PCB which doesnt sag at all. The original hsf is jsut as heavy actually coz it's made of a big huge cast base. The cards are straight as an arrow with no sagging.

Aiyak. I did a quick run at 4ghz with 1303 bios n then itchy bekside went n upgraded to 1305 bios to c if it was better. Now cant OC for nuts.

Didnt do Prime95 at 4ghz. Will do so the next time I flash back to 1303 if I cant find a better bios.

Here's a comparo I just did between a stock 8800GTX and a HR03 Plus equipped 8800GTX. Check out the temps I got from the Thermalright HR03 Plus.

Stock 8800GTX on idle. 75C

Stock 8800GTX on load running rthdribl. 83C

8800GTX with Thermalright HR03 Plus on idle. 53C

8800GTX with Thermalright HR03 Plus on load running rthdribl. 62C

That's a massive 22C drop on idle temps and another massive 21C drop on load temps. Absolutely mind blowing performance from the HR03. All the above tests were run in non air cond room at 31C room temp. The low temps r so mind blowing I'm still in a state of shock really. 20+ celcius drop is just crazy awesome.

Wow.. That is a huge drop.

If I do get a 8800GTS, changing the cooler is at the top of my list. But I guess it won't happen...

peaz · 25th Sep 2007, 09:10 AM

wow. 20oC is definitely a huge performance
