He took a risk doing so for no real benefit IMO tho he did write in the listing that it's a "limited beta version". Luckily for him, I don't care as will overvolt and overclock it manually anyway. But some less savvy kid might have thought "item not as described".

Heh at work; all stuff gets delivered here. Days like this sure drag and suck but at least I always get my packages. As opposed to Humberto down the block or some shit.

Mmm new card smell.

GTX 480 is installed and works fine though I did have to reinstall Windows. Once the NV driver loaded during startup I got all kinds of 2D display corruption. In early benching my 6850s are definitely more than "2% faster". For example, 3DMark 11 scored a thousand points less (however, the results page did tell me my score was "low" for my system so maybe missing a driver setting/tweak--Texture Filtering on High Perf and AA and AF on app-controlled...much less familiar with NV drivers and their interface). Using 290.53 beta at present (not the latest but sounded like a good choice for my card after some quick reading).

Wanted to try playing Caspian at both 2x and 4x MSAA but then the damn PB problem was back and I got kicked consistently during joining.

5450 or so and says my "target" was (only) 5800ish. My 6850s scored almost 6800.

Speak for yourself, I managed to cling to a 1.0 k/d But, yes, it was a shit show against a bunch of six toed rubes. At least it earned Reayth a bottle of J. Walker, though.

As far as I remember, Reayth and I were at the top of our team, but yeah, got beatdown hard.

Yeah he's a knifen foo ! I think any one on TPU who has played against him has been knifed by him.
Check his BFBC2 Stats and see how many he had. 1Kurgan1
Of course Ufgy knows better than anyone as he took the most tags from him

Sure...when it's actually evening for me!

If Punkbuster will let me that is. These sudden problems are weird; furthermore as just went away then came back over the last three days. PBSetup run and re-run, again since Windows reinstall. Makes me a little more sympathetic to the ALL CAPS screamers claiming they were ripped off on the Battlelog forums cause apparently sometimes PB just doesn't work inexplicably.
