Sell the kid DOM, your savings grow exponentially through the ensuing years 40 grand a year that would have gone for college would buy you some pretty nice hardware dude

Unfortunately, just joking - yes they're a PITA, and yes, they're ungodly expensive, but whey they're yours they're worth every bit of it

Besides, who would buy them :

$499 ex. vat.
not bad ( terrible if you consider the fact that it wasn't supposed to be the high end card initially ).

1848MHz @ LN2 by Vince already

Ok, now that I just go to the egg and search I see them, the link I had must have been torqued.

Stream processors? I thought that was an AMD thing? Whatever happened to CUDA cores?

Like BZ, I had thought this was an introductory model with the flagship to follow months from now... has that changed? Last I read, the top dog was going to be a 660 Ti or some other such nonsense
