It will get into windows start at (104fsb) 1300mhz but I get an error message and windows reg errors at 102 & 103. 101 locks up sooner or later. I'm sure it is just temp releated as I wasn't able to get 1250 before the artifical cooling.

Bladerunner, how do you manage to get such low temps on your V7700? I have one myself, but that thing never gets lower temps than 33 deg. Celsius!
And how do you control the voltages? Even if I tweak the thing, they always stay both at 3.49V.

I've put a bigger heatsink on my Asus v7700 GTS, a copper insert Alpha PAL6035, this is absolutely not needed but I had one so It is also at Idle using the dynamic graphics cooling option and note my inside case temp of 10c
more on this HERE from an old topic of mine about 6 months ago.
The 3.42voltage is what the card is getting from the AGP slot and this is controlled by the VIO voltage setting (which some mobo's allow you to change in the bios). Not sure where it gets the 1.47 from but I haven't adjusted that.
I have also cut a 6" x 3" hole in the bottom of the tower and placed it over a similar hole in the floor so it is sucking outside air in. Outside temp is 6C at the moment in the UK.

No, rather annoyingly the KT7 raid has only two temp sensors on the board, one for the CPU, (in the socket), and one on the board for system temp. Maybe this is something to do with the Via chipset but it is annoying whatever the reason as I want more temp sensors, not less.
This is my first AMD system and previous BX chipset mobo's have had a third header for a probe which I used to monitor the back side of the pcb, (opposite the GPU).
I have just got so used to seeing the window, so I leave it in although if you look It doesn't change in 6000 plus refreshes, (other than from 30 to 31, but that must just be the small inaccuracies the mbm monitoring). Quite why it shows 30C all the time when it is not monitoring anything I haven't a clue.
The Smart Doctor app measures the GPU temp and if I run an intense 3d app exit it and go straight to the smartdoc it is 30C - 33C as it doesn't have a high and low log.
It's explained in my post's in this thread link Here
No, we have the telephone network of a developing nation in the UK and Unless I come across the £7 million, (plus), to have a cable run from my house to the nearest large town, (7 miles), I am stuck with a 56k at 38k most of he time . I can't get IDSN, I can't get ADSL as I'm too far from the exchange.
The only bright point is my ISP is free 24/7,(no phone charges), and I can still win in UT online with a ping in the 200 to 300 region
I personally don't like gluing anything on, so I drilled & tapped two holes in the base of the Alpha which I then attached with nylon screws through the holes in the PCB (the same two holes used by the plastic clips of the retail heatsink) that worked fine.
I also have a P166 heatsink with four holes in the base that line up with the four smaller holes in the PCB around the GPU. This also works well nearly as good as the Alpha. The other option is a Blue Orb of course.
Found something very weird out though, if the GPU temp goes below 16C idle, the display goes blank for a second every now and then....... strange ??? might put the p166 heatsink back on it so it stays a bit warmer.
