    @atisas2 ambient depends on your case but max safe would be around 95c but I wouldn’t want my graphics card going over 80c.

  2. atisas2 says:

    @BlackZero1891
    Normal Temperature?

  3. BlackZero1891 says:

    @atisas2 Yes it can ,which is why you need to go up slowly and keep an eye on temps.

  4. atisas2 says:

    @BlackZero1891 But can it burn?

  5. BlackZero1891 says:

    @atisas2 each card is diffferent, you’ll have to try.

  6. atisas2 says:

    Can i overclock HD 6950 Sapphire Dirt3 Edition (with two fans) as your?

  7. checkermanhans says:

    @BlackZero1891 I wanted to say without fraps running…

  8. BlackZero1891 says:

    @checkermanhans It’s not without overclocking.

  9. checkermanhans says:

    how did you get 23000 gpu points without overclocking ?! In the most benchmarks I saw they only got ~18.000 points…

  10. checkermanhans says:

    @BlackZero1891 okay sorry :’D

  11. BlackZero1891 says:

    @checkermanhans Like I said in my last reply, all the scores can be seen at the 3dmark link provided. The graphics only score without fraps is 24853.

  12. checkermanhans says:

    there are 3 scores: the 3dmark vantage score(overall), the gpu score and the cpu score and you only wrote the 3dmark vantage score of the test without fraps. So what is the gpu score ? Really important for me. :)

  13. checkermanhans says:

    @BlackZero1891 and gpu score ?

  14. checkermanhans says:

    @BlackZero1891 thanks :)

  15. BlackZero1891 says:

    @checkermanhans with fraps it’s 24,947 (as in the video) and without fraps at almost the same settings it’s 26,681. There’s links to 3dmark’s website that give a breakdown score for each individual test in the details above.

  16. checkermanhans says:

    @BlackZero1891 with fraps it’s 23000 and without ?

  17. checkermanhans says:

    @BlackZero1891 yes, but that’s only the 3dmark score and the most benchmarks on the internet got the gpu scores …

  18. BlackZero1891 says:

    @checkermanhans If you read the details above, the video scored 25k, the 26,700 was without fraps.

  19. checkermanhans says:

    @BlackZero1891 how many points do you get without fraps/afterburner ??

  20. arakakimangaka says:

    @checkermanhans Sorry, I am trying…

  21. BlackZero1891 says:

    @checkermanhans The 6950′s scale extremely well in crossfirex, overclock the cpu to atleast 4.5 and you’ll have a killer system!

  22. checkermanhans says:

    ~26700 ?! That’s as much as the gtx 580 Oo and I’m planning on getting 2 6950′s and i7 2600k :’D

  23. checkermanhans says:

    @arakakimangaka learn english dude…

  24. BlackZero1891 says:

    @arakakimangaka Not yet, but might do so.

  25. arakakimangaka says:

    have not you make a 3dmark11 video?
    It would be interesting
