Default EVGA 7900GT KO SUPERCLOCKED Problems?

I was considering purchasing this card but the reviews on mwave.com say that
that there are known issues with this chipset/card, and EVGA has yet to
solve all of them. And that lots of owners are reporting problems with
either heat or issues with the video card memory.

But there is just this one review so I just thought I'd ask in here to see
if anyone else has had problems.


Yes, I recently bought an eVGA 7900GT KO (not Superclocked) and it
artifacts in 3DMark06 at the end of the Deep Freeze bench. If I downclock
it to stock 7900GT speed it passes that bench fine so I don't think there
is anything inherently wrong with Nvidias design. The resellers
overclcocked them at the factory without properly testing to see if they
could run at those speeds.
