I have a radeon 8500 heavy modded with custom heatsinks. I did a voltage mod on the vcore and memory to overclock to 300/300 stable. I also flashed the ram to the latest retail. If you have a geforce card..g4 would be nice email me at gimpy@optonline.net thanks.

would swap you if for the fact that linux struggles to recognise a lot of ati radeons (will be fixed with the batch of new releases coming up i hope)

well, you could always look for drivers before posting that... ATI makes drivers for the 8500, and it sounds like he's beefed it up to be quite a nice card.

i could but having actually known people who had great problems running this card in it's natural state i would stil be reluctant. and as we all know spec's are not everything cos it's benchmarks and capability that counts
