I bought a Sapphire non pro and overclocked it to pro speeds for about a
week with absolutely no problems. So I flashed the bios and made it a pro. Runs like a charm with no extra cooling or anything. I think I could still overclock it more, but frankly I'm quite happy with the speed I have and the price I paid. JK "Chris Roth" wrote in message .rogers.com...
