What greg is talking porkies?

You do understand that sitting on the desktop lowers the clocks/volts and those volts I am showing are for the CPU?

I like how you take the post and twist it to your way of thinking. Good work

Anyways, I have to go to work now to earn my next purchases

Wow, nice....

Thanks man, i will post some benches soon. Outside of the Firestrike benchmarks though, four cards seems rather useless at my resolution.

Having a dead card being RMA'ed compared to a possible flaky card being DSR'ed are two different things (Not that we know if Matt's card is getting DSR'ed because the words keep changing).
Pretty sure Tommy has a list of quotes he can bring up to people on occasion to

It's not a dead card, it works fine when overclocked and overvolted but i did get the odd black screen with it at stock. As the new card works fine im keeping that and sending the other back. Pretty simple and not once did i ever say i was DSRing it, even though it may have sounded like that. If i DSR i have to pay postage.

Matt, ignore them, they are just trying to wind you up

 

[smogsy]

least you still got 3 cards, getting bored of using 570
tried geforce experience every new game is use low settings lol

 

[Martini1991]

"Within DSR period" is one thing you say, why would you mention that if you're weren't DSR'ing (You wouldn't)? You've edited your posts anyway so I can't really see what you'd originally said.

But here's what I see ;

No I'm keeping this one, but sending back the other one that has given me the odd black screen. Don't know if it's actually faulty or not, but not taking the risk as it's within the DSR period.

That looks like you're DSR'ing it to me.

....


And I didn't say your card was dead, I meant Gregg's, the two scenario's weren't comparable.

Matt, ignore them, they are just trying to wind you up

Not really.

Because i told them that i would DSR if they refused the rma as i believed it was faulty. The notice was running out so i had to get it in there. Credit to them they said they'd come and collect it. Think it helps that I've bought a ton of stuff from them recently. I'm fairly sure it's faulty, as none of my other cards behaved like that at stock.

It's all good, giving us a good chuckle.

Three cards is the sweet spot for sure.

That's weird, the mrs said the same thing earlier. Hang tight bug, not sure what our other email is. Will message you on twitter when i find out. Maybe ntlworld is down.

 

[humbug]

ok.

 

[eyetrip]

3 cards the sweet spot... For anything but bf4

Castlevania runs beautiful, but no idea how demanding that is maxed in Eyefinity.

Asseto Corsa also really nice with 3 and Eyefinity.

It couldn't have been any clearer.

It's impossible to twist your honest 'Afraid so' after being asked 'killed the Titan', or anything you wrote in the posts, I wasn't in the discussion.

Bang on petey.

Pretty sure Tommy has a list of quotes he can bring up to people on occasion to

I learned that here.

 

[LtMatt]

[humbug]
