I tried unlocking my new 6950s and did a bit of research after I bought them. You'll have the best luck trying to unlock a reference version. Pretty much any new 6950 you buy will not be unlockable. Mine weren't. |
I was playing around and overclocking my gtx460, ran a test at 900mhz core and 1800mhz shader, 2150 memory. Got it up to 77 degrees celcius, ran the mark test fairly well, ran bf3 a lot better but froze after 10min of play :(. Addicted to the extremely pretty graphics of bf3 soooo...... I'm guna buy another gtx460 and SLi them :-D

the lowest spec card i would get is the http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814150563 what your looking for http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...d&Pagesize=100 |
The GPU I have now required me to hack into the PS wiring, it didn't even have a hookup for a GPU. So I worry I'll overload it. It's been along time since I've had to build a PC, I have a dell dude.

But if you have a dell your only real problem is if the card will fit. Deal was stupid enough to make it some you could not fit a two bay card in there cases. Some of there over complicated ducting was in the way and so forth and so on. |
my PS only had the cool newer type of power plugs, very thin SATA style. the convertor the GPU came with was for the really old bukly style like shown in your link. So I had to graft it in.
