    Ah okay, politeness. Let's all join in and help muzz voice his anger and discontent in the most courteous manner possible as it's the best method of depicting urgency. "Dear diligent & hardworking AMD fellows, We write to you today in order to shed light on a hot-button opportunity...

    Asus/partner has 50% TDP (not 50% of 208w), = 20% oc from 1000mhz, or ~50% oc from 800mhz.

    Option to change priorities would be nice. On top of that, this solution is nowhere near as elegant as Nvidia's Boost 2.0. However, we should be glad that AMD tried to get the most out of each individual ASIC/card. 727mhz for the worst qual asic in warm environments, and 1000mhz for the...

    Okay, I digress. My argument was for an improved bracket & boost, and I got my answers. Giving it a rest so the discussion get back on topic with the detailed process and ASIC talk from guys like fellix, Alex, Jawed, Ailuros & Gispel

    ^ yeah i see the 8 pstates DPM with <10ms polling, and how the clock has dynamic scaling. Still seems weaker than even the GTX680's Boost 1.0 in terms of producing high performance numbers for reviews.

    AMD's definition of "Boost" is slap on 1 extra P-state, punch the clock & head to Chili's for dinner. It needs more work. Boost doesn't matter too much for buyers who can recognize the potential, but it does make Nvidia products look faster in the reviews. Sad to see Pitcairn lose to GK104 in...

    About the GTX660, just checked wiki and it says they make two models: an OEM from Aug 22 2012 is GK104 @ 294, and a retail is Sept 12, 2012 GK106 @ 221. I should have used the Retail one instead of OEM, although both are called "GTX660". Using the 221mm^2 size = 1.101 rating That graph can...
