Nice! Results seem okay too.

 

3DMark11 is a little low, though. Using the latest WHQL + v1.0.3 ?

Yap, but probably the VGAs are nost so stable...as during the run before i set 50 Mhz lower on VGas and I got better scores...so too hot probably.

Yeah cards tend to go hot and spicy when squeezed in 3 and 4-way on air - often loosed some points myself in certain benches.

the vantage und UH DX11 looks very tasty anyway :D good job!
