2 GPUs are better than one
VTX3D's is highly desired.
Imagine what a pair of these
would be like if crossfired!
Stick them inside the top of the range
the Ultima Demolishers
then even Ruby would be in awe
of the might of the Overclockers
no such luck here, unfortunately.
EDIT: Emergency over! Came into work and found the ticket in among the huge amount of bubble wrap that I had thankfully left on my desk (because I'm an untidy sod!) :o
Bought one of these yesterday at the special offer price. Is Dirt 3 supposed to be in the box or sent as a code via email? Only got emailed one for Shogun 2.
Sorry for necro-ing this, but not too sorry :D

PNY...
Have an iMac with a 27" screen and found I couldn't play World Of Warcraft full screen on it (possibly sat too close to it). On the rare occasion that I use it for playing games on, I generally switch to windowed mode and situate the window near the bottom of the screen.
Another side effect...
Getting pretty abysmal Read speeds on my 90GB Vertex 2E. I'm pretty sure that the Read speed should be faster than Write!
I've followed the instructions on the SSD Windows 7 Tweaks guide but if anything I lost a couple of MB/s speed!
EDIT: enabled AHCI
I have switched to using Nvidia Inspector and seem to have not had that issue so far.
Update: well seems stable at 880/1760/4240 @ 1.087V running at about 67C (fan hits 77% speed) without any apparent artifacting at least in Mafia II demo, Just Cause 2 benchmarks and in FurMark but I'll be...
so far i've got it up to 850/(can't remember off top of head)/4200 and it's completely stable if I slowly set it to that speed, but if I immediately go from MSI's stock settings to it, it BSODs. Have also upped the voltage to about 1.08V with same results.
Got the MSI - very nice and a definite improvement over my ageing 8800 GTX.
Although I've found with extra overclocking it can go pretty high but only if i manually increase it over time.
If I use Afterburner to jump straight to the high setting which has been previously stable it BSODs...
Mine arrived this morning, but as I had forgotten to order memory upgrade at the same time, so am holding off upgrading to Windows 7 Home Premium* til that arrives.
* still have my full retail version that I got for £50 when it was first release :)
I'm a total noob at overclocking but I bought an overclocked PC (q6600 g0 @ 3.2GHz, ip35 pro) from OcUK about 2 1/2 years ago and it came with 4 x 1GB of Crucial Ballistix PC6400.
Am considering replacing the memory with just 2 x 2GB of same type of memory so I can possibly try and squeeze...
