Stock Cooler

At stock this card are suffering from hot PWM chips, also called VRM. I did take the chance of bencing it a bit, and even if I am still a n00b on ATI I will share my newbie results.

I am aware of a cheat that ATI/AMD people uses to get high 3dmark11 scores, and that is to disable Tesselation in the CCC under Games. Doing that, and by not posting the real 3dmark11 url, makes it impossible for people to see it. I do post the URL, to show that I didnt cheat.

In this case I had a little too much alcohol in the blood to make my computer run with all resources kicked in, so at the clocks, it might not be anything special.
