A good friend of mine died tonight, one of The Bastard's testicles expired :(

Goodbye old friend! Off to RMA heaven where the volts and PCIe frequency run free!

*sniff*....How can I go through life (even if only for a few weeks) with only one 4870X2 ?

wow, buddy. You really did have a weak core. So she finally give out on you? Totally sucks. No if you'd go look at the Gladiator giveaway thread, you might cheer up some.

Gah, I don't know how I am going to swing any rma's atm as I modified the brackets on the cards. They have their stock coolers back on now and one is completely dead and the other just can't handle much of a load before it crashes.

Any idea what would cause the "SGDs"? Thats what I'm tryin to figure out. Did they go the way of the crispy critter with waterblocks on or when you thru them back on air?

No they were both showing major corruption in bios last night after repeatededly crashing in games yesterday, the only way I could occasionaly get the one card to post was with a water block strapped to it...
