    7900 GTX cards keep dying

    Wow, thanks for all the info, I knew I wasn't crazy. My cards did exactly what you described. Both BFG I did RMA them but I wonder if crossfire might be the way to go until this issue is worked out. ..performance seems pretty similar.

    Thanks, I not an expert with this board by far so anyone correct me. DFI board uses a Mem Divider. I believe the settings were: 5/6 Mem Divider HTT 335 FSB 279 CPU 3015MHZ Works out to be almost 11:1, still pretty new to this board might be some other settings with it that I am missing.

    Thanks man, Yeah I was hoping for something more impressive for AQ3 but vid cards are acting up. I will post the screen later on today. I prolly won't get a chance until next week to try another run at it, RMAing 7900GTXs :( They ran great out of the box, but now can't get them to run...

    A Couple of new scores. Finally broke 130k in AQ3, but it took a lot longer than expected. The 7800GTXs prolly would of done it with better memory but the opportunity to upgrade to 7900GTXs was to hard to resist. Not much of an improvement in AQ3 but I am still trying to get it dailed in...

    Wow, pics of all that hardware gave me wood. Looks like it's been pretty active here lately woot woot. Make's me want to start benchmarking again. Unfortunately no new toys to help out with the scores. But I am finally thinking about removing the IHS off Opty 165, that just might push AQ3...
