Yeah, those are the switches I mentioned in the article on the 1st paragraph of the “Card Details & Bundle” section.

It indeed is HIDDEN – I had to ask Colorful rep about that too. It’s really odd to have a feature yet not highlighting it eh?

I just got this card 1 week ago. I wasn’t satisfied with galaxy 9800gtx+ having very high temp on load. So far I haven’t had time to test this card yet but based on 3dmark 2006 I tested on both cards, the readings are the same.

Also, one nice HIDDEN feature I found.

At the edge of the card, there are 2 switches in each corner. The switch have “low/high” label. You can see it in your picture in http://www.goldfries.com/images/hwreviews/colorful9800gtx/hwreviews_colorful9800gtx_12.jpg.

According to colorful (I emailed them), those switches are for setting memory voltage and GPU voltage meant for overclocking. Those who have this card can try.

eh, both are already overclocked versions. I don’t wish to overclock further though, unless somehow I have a lot of time to kill.
