I'm looking at specs on newegg on some different cards. I notice that many of the cards have a flat version, then some KO, and ultra, or XXX version. The only real difference I can see is the clock speeds. All the hardware seems to be exactly the same just clocked higher on the processor and memory bandwidth.
Do they use the same exact processors in say... the 8800GTX that has a 575mhz core and the 612mhz core, and just clock it higher for the latter? If they are using the same chips, these gains can be achieved through riva tuner without volt mods. Is the cooling modified or something?
I'm just trying to understand. I am currently running an s939 solution with 2 7600gt's @610/800 and I can tell a difference on the overclock, about to upgrade to an abit ip35 pro and will be moving to a single card solution so I'm in the market for a high end card, and I don't wanna shell out the cash for speeds I can achieve on my own.
