So basically I don't usually do these kindz of things...I felt that this card deserved some sort of test run from me and my rig. I'll post screen shots/overclock stats,temps,bugs and w/e else I come across. I am still undecided if I am keeping the card or not. If I keep it I'll most likely just end up duming my cards on ebay or craigslist or something. Logically it makes no sense to keep the GTX cards.

One thing that I would like to touch on it what got me to buy the card. I would have to say that over 50% of my choice was based on the fact that you can now combine displays using ATI's technology. I have been waiting for something this for years without having to go the Matrox triple head. route.

More to come soon..

dead space at those settings doesent really look all that good, got some anisotropic filtering junk going on thats not too good.
and its got that look like alot of things have double edges for one object, GTA 4 does that some times.
