I think it is quite funny.....Sony continues to fumble the ball...LOL I'm sure it will be a nice machine,.....but they sure have a funny way of marketing their upcoming console. It is starting to sound like the VooDoo 6000.

The 39 comments on newegg give no benches and no indication of what sli combo they are using...so they are kind of useless beyond stability.

Look at this guy's 3DMark scores!

I was just giving a link to help explain "Phase change" by keeleysam, he did not go into detail of what phase change is...just thought the link would help. I also agree that it probably is dry ice. Short term super cooling for benchmarks..ie. 3dmark.

Piss-Poor o/c on an eVga 6800GT

Make sure your heatsink is making proper contact with GPU. You should insure that proper contact is in place in order to allow proper heat transfer. That is a definite must for any sort of overclocking. Rollo also brings up a good point......that the card meets the factory specs. Some GPUs will...
