Ok. I got my PNY 6800 GT yesterday, and right away I took apart all the heatsinks very carefully, and applied arctic silver 5 to everything.
I found the the GPU already has what seems to be arctic silver on it.
I can now overclock it to 427/1200 stable @ 52 C. Thats right 52 degrees celcius. I have a Vantec PCI fan at full blast, and I took off that graphics cover plate to expose the heatsinks underneath.
Its 52 degrees at full overclock after running 3dmark 2003 3 times in a row.
The ram timings of 1200 seem to be almost the best I have seen.
I will post pics of the entire process tomorrow.
