And the i7 920.

I think that the Q6600, E8400, and i7 920 stand in the Hall of Fame of Intel CPUs. Maybe one of the E5x00s or 45nm E6x00s as well

(FIH) The Don · Aug 19, 2010, 11:15 PM

ah yes

was about to say "budget" cpus

(FIH) The Don · Aug 20, 2010, 08:09 AM

Hmm, I am biased towards AMD/ATi, but it's for practical reasons.

Yup, I totally respect the authoritah of these cards. They rock for high-end purposes, but they suck royal dong when it comes to performance/watt, heat production and silence, which are my areas of interest

i was kinda biased when the 58xx series came out, but that was more because of the tremendous performance for the money they offered

but this was a demo deal, so for 275$ compared to 450 for a new, i could really not say no lol

If you are referring to your Maximus II Formula mb - it looks like you will need to use the hack...

I can see where you are coming from, but if you are not worried about performance/watt, heat production and silence...
Then go for it!!!
Or you can water cool the GPU(s) and not worry about the heat and silence

(FIH) The Don · Aug 20, 2010, 08:25 AM

yes its a CF board, but idk if i can do that SLi thingie on it lol

oh well, ill head over to the sli section

(FIH) The Don · Aug 20, 2010, 03:03 PM

c: im waiting on a nice CM 1KW PSu from KieX to arrive, since i dont trust my 500W cheiftec to run safely when i start oc'ing both cpu and gfx

Athlonite · Aug 20, 2010, 03:06 PM

No rush dude just when you can get to it

I quite like the looks of that card plain and simple no hideous stickers on the cowling

(FIH) The Don · Aug 20, 2010, 03:08 PM
