@Dataman - Are you in Southern California? You seem to have the same weather as me. I live in the Mojave Desert right next to Edwards AFB. I am in Northern California in the Sierra Foothills. About 35 miles East of Sacramento. I know your area well though. That streach between Cramer Corners and Mojave is were I see how fast my Saleen will go. ![]() ![]() ![]() Yes - that is quite the stretch. A lot of years ago, I had a 68 Camaro and got it up to 142 MPH. I should be dead - those tires cost me about $45 each and weren't rated at that speed. Ah... good times! ![]()

I got the Saleen up to 153 and I swear it would do an honest 160 if I had not run out of real estate (and testicles) as I came into Mojave.

Maybe this card is the devil... it made my desktop crash.
----------------------------------------![]() Either that or I can't power a Q660, 260 and a 9800GTX+. I turned off my Quad crunching so that should be sufficient energy. [Edit 2 times, last edit by Former Member at May 1, 2009 4:31:24 AM] |

Jeez - this GTX 275 runs hot! On the 260 I could leave the fan on auto, and it would stay around 78C. If I leave the fan on auto on the 275, it wants to run about 87C. I have to run the fan at 65% to get this thing down to 80C.
----------------------------------------It's starting to sound like a C130 on take-off roll in my dining room! ![]()

They also seem to be more durable at high temps than CPU's. Don't worry ... be happy ... about the credits. ![]() ![]() |

My Camaro was red and I used to get pulled over even when I wasn't doing anything wrong! I have an HHR now and it weighs next to nothing. The engine is a 2.4L, but it's a lot of engine for that frame. And I just put a set of Goodyear Eagle F1-AS tires on it so it corners like mad, now! I'm not too thrilled about the front wheel drive, but it sure is a lot of fun to drive.
