Just bought one of these (B grade £179) does anyone else have one? If so, what came with it, I know they may all be different but I'm curious.

How loud is the fan on these things and is there a decent alternative cooling system for the 260s yet?

Has anyone upped the clocks further than the factory OC?

cheers.

edit - Actually, it doesn't say B grade anywhere in the listing so these must be full retail boxed complete with a 10 year manufacturers warranty and all the gubbins.

Bonus :)

Well I just got the 55nm SSC version for £178 to upgrade from my 8800 GTS, can't wait for Friday :D Cheers Sweetloaf *taps beer bottles*

P.S. Ooh ooh what about EVGA's step-up service? I don't think my SSC version qualifies but a vanilla 55nm will. Although some people have been able to step-up from their SSC version. Wonder if this little saving of ~£40 means a cheaper GTX 295.

Why buy b-grade 260's on the 65nm, when they are the same price as the brand new 55nm's :confused:

55nm = £225

65nm = £179

and I made a mistake, they aren't B-Grade, just clearance stock.

This threads well confusing.

Why?:confused:

I do find it slightly odd that the 192 core card is £183, and there seem to be two versions of the SSC card at different prices.

Nope, the less you pay for your original card, the more you have to pay for a step up :mad:
