My 6600GT needs voltmod
hey guys/gals

i own a Gigabyte GV-NX66T256DE Here and its showing quite a few annoying artifacts in BF2142 like green patches on the ground and such

ive overclocked it from 500/800 to 589/918
it runs at 25C at idel and around 50C (i think) at load
im just thinking about doing voltmod on the card until i get a 8800GTS
the silent-pipe make the card run cool, and i have a spare fan sitting around that was on the top heatsink to make it cooler and it works, so i can make it cooler if i need to
and when i go to overclock it more it says (using coolbits) "The test failed to run at the selected clock frequencies. Please lower your settings and try again" <--which sucks

Thanks

EDIT: i also have a Gigabyte GA-8I945P-G-RH motherboard if you might want that info

Does it use the same chips as that card? Also, it does run without artifacts at stock, right?

No no, by chips I mean PWMICs and MOSFET controllers and the like, not whether it's the same GPU...

Does the PCB of your card look the same as the two cards shown in the article? Is the resistor in the same place? Is it the same value?
