I'm happy to report that my card unlocked successfully. I've run 3DMark05, rthdribl, and a couple games and haven't seen any artifacts... and I saw an increase of 350 3DMarks.
It is a little louder than I would have hoped though. I thought these things where supposed to have variable fans? Mine sounds the same (fairly loud) all the way from idle-46C to 70C (the highest I could take it by running rthdribl fullscreen for over an hour).
