welp installed it and overclocked without adjusting voltage.... pop.. burning smell, nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, THIS SUCKS, omg what have i done this is the last nvidia card i ever buy, i thought after reading reviews it could handle an oc as long as i didnt touch the voltage.. man was i wrong

reported for trolling

water-cooling is extremely dangerous, the only thing more dangerous than water-cooling is gtx590ing

so i'm ordering all the parts right now, but what i'm most concerned about is the case, i need at least 1/4 -1/2 inch thick hardened steel case to protect form shrapnel in the event my card explodes, can anyone link me i cant find and PC cases thick enough yet

just wait one week you will see lol, the guys i talked to told me that amd knew the nvidia dual card would be release by the end of February and amd was determined to beat nvidia to market on this one and has kept the release highly top secret, it will hit the store shelves minimum 2 weeks...

im on a lot of stock message boards and always trading amd stock, i have heard form several reliable posters and retailers 6990 will be released within a week got my pocket book open gonna snap this baby up, anyone need a used eyefinty 6 card? going cheaply

doubt it, doubt their going to have crap like that go wrong, its the light yo as described in this informative illustration

date is 30 / 07 / 10 on the engineering sample, can someone tell us how long its been since the engineering samples and last generations and the releases? does this mean low end cards will be released first? NM just checked the 5000 engineering samples had dates of 10 / 06 / 2009 aka June...

its metallic red (powder coated?), i think your just noticing the light reflection which makes it look lighter.. metallic red FTW you put something reflective in an all white background.. its going to reflect whitish hues aka pinkish

very good review wish i had some extra cash

+1 on the reference, i choose sapphire, but if i were looking for best price performance honestly id buy a used reference card of ebay, sometimes there as cheap as 120-130 dollars if you keep checking back, im fairly confident the 5770's are solid cards at good temps i dont think the used ones...

maybe not, i guess each chip is diff, mine required 1.4 to get past 4.2 stable, and at that point my temps were approaching 90C so i had to call it a day, pretty sure i could have gotten 4.3-4.4 if i had better cooling, but then again i didnt consider that cooler temps might reduce the necessary...

well his setup is 14C cooler than my I7 3.8 1.25 volts aircooled megahalems at load with 2x 1800RPMs, not sure how much cooler water is supposed to be than air, but id say 14C is pretty good Craigleberry: think you'll try upping the volts to 1.4+ and see how high you can crank her?

wait wait, shouldn't the price be going down in theory because servers will be getting cheaper and or be able to support more subscribers over time?

lol looks like they need to find some games that can run on sandy-bridge with decent frames
