no..The 680 was sent by my cousin to do his homewaork..water cooled is what he wants from me..the gamers are his biggest market...the note said..."i might have to get this back...I love this sucker..it's not going to happen....lol
I change video cards alot...for a long time the ATI 5870 was always with me...then the GTX580 for awile...I have a new fave...Video cards are a real personal part of a PC..with this 690 the speed and lack of heat plus hardly no sound and the fact it is really beautiful makes it a easy pick...now the cost is just nuts..not sure i would or could pay it..BUT if I was going to get 2...7970's or ...680's..I for sure would...I have only been told 2 times they might want this back when I run a card...so far this has never happened...I dont think they can get this one back...Im not home...LOL
This is my first time with EVGA..I am so impressed by there card and software...just really great workmanship...
also I keep the sides off my Mtn mods fish tank but I have never liked a card that exhausted from both ends..This doesnt really matter..its actually hard to gget it to blow ward......I miss you guys
