Biggest issue for me would be the noise. I am one that simply cannot tolerate a noisy vid card.

The review says it's not for low sensitivity gamers. That leaves me out. 1200 DPI is about as high as I will go for desktop use and still way too fast in gaming for me. Would have been good for the review to expand on that more than it did as there are a lot of people who like low sensitivity...

I bought this heatsink for my daughter's I7 920 (which was passed down from me). One thing that needs to be mentioned is that out of the box this heatsink will not fit a 1366 cpu socket. I found that out the hard way from not reading enough and when I tried to put it in I discovered my blunder...

Thing with using Hwinfo is it only gives vid voltage, not vcore.

I too have had this "green dollar sign like" dots on screen at times with Deus Ex 3, Crysis 2 and Assassin's Creed 3. Curiously I've never had them in BF3 though I only play it in single player (I'm just not a multiplayer type dude). I also believe it's a voltage issue and maybe inevitably...

I really liked this review. Of all the ones I've read, I thought this one was the best. Reason being it had the most games, the most resolutions, and the most variations of video cards for comparison. A lot of the other sites seem to forget that not every gamer upgrades to every new model coming...

Good review. Still has 1280x1024 comparsions. Since I'm still a 19" LCD monitor user (and plan to be for quite some time still), I look for reviews that haven't forgotten about me. This card I'm not really impressed with. Power demands, heat issues and noise issues put this card over the top...

Mikey thanks you very much. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's brain thinks in Fahrenheit. At least now there will be a choice so the Celius users won't be affected. Thanks again!

I know how to do the conversion. I just prefer to see temps in Fahrenheit. I don't go outside and go, "it's kind of warm, it must be around blank degrees Celius". As long as I've been around computers (and it's been quite some time now), I still don't think in Celcius, I have to convert...

I'd like to see an option to display in Fahrenheit.

I'm interested in this mouse pad. I didn't see any links where you could actually buy one (I'm in the US). Who carries these pads in the US?
