XFX, known for taking high-end cards and pushing them 'till they bleed, has helped a pair of dedicated Finnish overclocking gurus achieve their goal of breaking the 3DMark World Record.

Their system, which included a special liquid nitrogen cooling system, utilized XFX's nVidia GeForce 6800 GT SLI card. As a result, they were able to increase the power supply to the memory modules and achieve a core clock of 575 MHz with a memory speed of 1300 MHz to produce a screaming 3DMark Score of 12,483.
