| Nice find! My 24" BW245 Samsung blew the other night. Had 2 new units in boxes for my future triplehead set up. Installed the second one, dead out of the box. The 3rd one worked, but need 2 x BW245's to get th2go set up. So.... I decided to start fresh. The LED Samsung appears to be a nice unit... |

| Only 500mhz! That is great throughput! How fast does windows load? My Adaptec 5850 is not taking kindly being to my Striker 2 board... sigh. I may have to regress to Motherboard raid. |

| The new OCZ IBIS drives have "Garbage Collector" thus no need for trim. |

| Impressive!! Running 5ghz stable? Can it be run in the summer at that clock? Noticed you have 4 x SSD's raid, what is your average read / write? I have 2 x ssd's raid 0 on a Adaptec 5805 being installed this weekend. Great job with the overclock! |

| I suspect, they are buying out time, re tooling to out do ATI's best offerings. At this point in time they are doing some serious scrambling to play catch up and out do ATI. They got some serious technology and resources to hammer out and compete. The next 12 months will be mission critical for Nivi... |

| I will have to get a second job to pay for the power and the cards. After getting the cards, thinking of mounting the computer in such a way I can hang a clothes line out side the cooling fans. just kidding but except for the second job. |

| Several reasons why I am getting 2 x 480's this fall (pending bank loan). 1. Need the office heated for the winter. 2. Use 3 x monitors 3. Fly FSX in 3d (more bank loans DOH!) 4. Like the sounds of cooling fans cranked up thus my computer sounds like a jet taking off. Hopefully the prices will drop ... |

| My feet get cold in the winter, so I can aim my out put from the fermi at my feet. Thinking of running my cold water pipes past the card and get free hot water. Plus, I can do the flight sim, and keep my KFC hot by keeping it by the Nvidia food warmer. I read some where George Forman is connected wi... |

| Whatever card works best for FSX, pending cost, I'll buy. My office gets cold in the winter so Nvidia's ability to heat it may be a plus. summertime, yikes! I am leaning towards ATI, unless the 480 can do well FPS for FSX, I'll forgo the heat and noise issues. What ever provides my need for speed (c... |

| The great computer portal of Kijiji! The guy I got the card from is super hard core OC'er. He's got a lot of hard drives in his unit. Going to try to get some new employment to get me some i7 action. Plus the new Nvidia cards out very soon. |
