Question Are these SICK or what

If I had the disposable cash, I'd pick up a pair of these just cause they look so damn sick

FIVE Eggs too

I'll have to see what kind of boints they'd bring it

No Kiki, it's sick because it has a 110 degree fever and the doctors are afraid it might not make it

I think it's sick for several reasons

1 - I LOVE the old art deco airplane propellor design
2 - looks like somthing that might have been on the nebacaneeser (no hints)
3 - It uses MSI's military specs for overclockability

Let us pray

Seriously, it does look cool.
Definitely different in how it looks and probrably runs nice n cool OC'ed too.

On a sidenote, just picked up a MSI 560ti 448 core card. Not getting rid of my 550 Zotacs and still have a use for those but the MSI is more along the lines of what I need for now anyway.
I'm just hoping it's a good one.

The Zotac amp 550's I have seem OK. I have a pair for SLI and so far they've been good as in they've done all I've asked of them so far.
I do need a stronger card since I'm doing some folding now and although these aren't the best for that purpose they do rather well overall.

I'd say at least try it - We've all at some point blown up more expensive pieces anyway you know.

Bones, you're a doctor not a video card reviewer dammit :

Don't have the cash to buy two and one would prolly be worthless. I'll play with what I got for the time being

You are right about me not being a GPU reviewer - Maybe someone guilty of OC'ing malpractice with one of these is more accurate.

I'm in a similar boat ATM, wanting to get something that would work in my case and having to shop around before I commit to buying one. Doing the same too related to what I have and while these are not bad, just not quite enough for what I really want to do here.
