i wonder what there test methods are...those clocks don't seem to bad.
As Btarunr pointed out though, this will probably cost significantly more than a regular card AND a Dangerden block, which are too expensive (to me at least) anyway, i'd really like to see a graphics card manufacturer doing a deal on cards with EK blocks, preferably costing slightly less than the card and block would seperately, given that they would save money not putting a HSF on (did you get all that palit_guy?:D)
