I was running 2 of the rev 1's for a long time. 1 on my 9800Pro and 1 on my 9500Pro. They both worked wonders for the cards. I'd like to try 1 of the new ATI silencers that are made out of copper, I bet they work alot better. I'm only using 1 of the Silencers now on my 9500Pro as my main system is all water cooled.

Well if this tells you anything about my core, I raised my 3dMark03 score from 5855 --> 6539 by overclocking so far.

Now this is weird...

3dMark03
5855 --> 6539

3DMark2001
17169 --> 17860

Notice anything...

that the difference between 3D03 is 684 and the diff between 3D01 is 691. FYI you cannont compair the difference between the two scores as 3D03 and 3D01 are based on very different cores and differnt versions of DX.
