Love it! Very fast for Portal/Portal 2, DiRT Showdown, and DiRT 2. I have a 2nd one on the way for SLI. At least the single card is quiet and runs reasonably cool, although I imagine that with two 150w cards in a case with two fans will run warm. Also does ~15k PPD or so for FAH

GTX 460 was one of the all time best card ever made IMHO and it should be considered a legendary hall of famer.

Post up your review. If it's good and people are interested, you'll get THANKED.

Don't go around telling people to show interest first... it makes you come across as rather narcissistic.

Reason being is that I posted it up over at anandtech and I was baited into a perma ban from the member's and mods. So that's why I ask first so as to understand if it's something people want to see because apparently it was not something they wanted to see over at anandtech forums and they flamed me hard. I put allot of time into my review to get the numbers right so I don't need any trolls trying to bring me down is all.

Post it up or this thread will be closed for not being useful. I can assure you that we keep trolls on a short leash here. As long as you can accept feedback and a little criticism, you should have no problem.

This was the first troll post from the thread where the review was originally posted and after this post it was pretty much all down hill from there 8 pages of nonsensical asinine troll posts as all the other resident trolls got wind and came out of the wood work. Makes me wonder if I should just stop trying to post any enriching content at all anymore.

Anandtech forum member "borisvodofsky" posted as follows below -

"So you came in here to stroke your budget e-peen, hoping some other broke-ass hardware enthusiast would come join you for a circle jerk.
I don't understand this mentality. Computer hardware is by far one of the cheapest most accessible hobbies; a few weeks of Top-Ramen, and you'll have pretty much the BEST computer among the 99th percentile.
Why do you people insist on buying budget hardware that you yourselves are not truly happy with.
You justify it by saying it reduces cost, but in terms of true comparisons, the performance to price ratio, the guys with budget hardware are paying significantly MORE."


"Thread crapping is not allowed.

Learn to express your opinions in a more constructive, less hostile manner, and learn to accept that not everybody will think as you do.

Oh yes I love an intelligent argument so long as the outcome and premise is enriching knowledge bases and understanding of our collective hobby being computer tech and gaming. You will not have trouble here from me I have learned the hard way in the past to not engage trolls just report them if need be. I understand I am the new guy and odd man out around here so I will be treading extra light from here on in.
