I'll add mine then: I read this yesterday, this is a disgustingly useless post that states the obvious and then tops it with repugnance. Why post just to criticize common ACCEPTED human behavior? Huh? On topic: I think AMD has a secret design just-in-case, which is expensive, low yield, huge...

Too little too late. Didn't cost them much either since it's a revision of an existing architecture. Couldn't think of this years ago, UMPC failed to make them zillions so there was absolutely no market, despite what the peasants were saying. Instead we get a hardware backdoor called vPro...

"... all this gives you chest pains." LOL

At this price point, 1 sell = 3 sells with a healthly profit. You could argue that there are more 'parts' that make up a higher end card but those are cheap, so is 'better' silicon. Add on some $20 bling and you're sustainable.

I bought my GSkill years ago, they were the best I could get my hands on: 2GBx2 1600 6-8-6-24-1T. Haven't found anything better worth buying.

Seems to have helped with my 680 lightning ... i undervolt the VRMs to run them cooler, no stability issues. Running better than a 770 ...

512bit bus .. woohoo, finally! AMD should never make the mistake again of not having an uber card with every launch. Almost want to sell my 680 lightning. ...

OMG, wow, I want it. I didn't realise Chris was back in the scene when I bought into Richard Garriott's new game, Shroud of the Avatar. Had I known about Star Citizen I most likely would have gone with Chris. He's a legend, incase you doesn't know, and highly capable of making top quality...

Whatever. I've got two balls: one for intel and one for nvidia. I'll start feeling sympathy for lost profits and dictatorial practices when these crooks stop evading their taxes.

No Mini-ITX, no sale.

I read about a card reader that had USB 3.0 ports and used USB 3.0 for the compact flash interface but not the SD interface, which was funneled through USB 2.0 instead at slower speeds. Sounds like Scythe didn't made that mistake but it's something to watch out for when buying a card reader with...

I'm not sure if it's been mentioned, but doesn't this give Intel a reason to raise prices on socketed (high-end) offerings? - less common format - enthusiast excuse Other than that, I don't mind BGA for my secondary computers, which never get upgrades or have a need for bleeding edge...

Haha, they're both high end. It's a midrange gpu now. Time to evolve or get in my gas tank!

I don't understand. Yes. maybe you could get 770 performance but at what price? I suppose if you're upgrading and reusing the block, you might buy this card for water cooling ... Ok, touche. It would make a good, silent mini gamer.

Yay, now I can water cool a mid range card. :/
