This is funny

I keep hearing of people who use stock cooling and can only get up to maybe 215 or 230 core (on a GeForce 3). Not to sound like a **** but my gainward can reach 250/550 without a flinch and it is perfectly stable. I can even get it to 260/555 perfectly. This is all stock cooling. Could you explain why I can do this and please tell me what type of fan and ram things. Thanks!

Don't ask why unless you want to join them.
Well the stock cooling on that board is a little more extreme than on most.

RivaTuner may be reporting your clock speeds wrong. Can you post a 3Dmark 2003 link with that clock speed?

i got my ti200 to 275 by 580 on the stock coolling, which consists of a cpu heatsink and nothing else. i put some airflow over the card, but it's still an unbelievable oc for the cooling it has on it.
