After finding and reporting a major bug in 14.9 WHQL drivers, AMD decided to thank me by gifting me a new GPU, an XFX 295X2 !

Massive thanks to Roy for the gift and Cy for getting it to me!

More pics will follow, right now I'm about to install this beast and hope my PSU is up to the task!

Win & P does nothing when Eyefinity is enabled, and Eyefinity 3.0 is their new feature of these drivers

Actually they do for just being a member of there focus group which has been going on from about 2004 in secret until some forums found out who some of the members were and insisted that it was declared in the signature.

Forum Signature.
Member of Nvidia Focus Group
NVIDIA Focus Group Members receive free software and/or hardware from NVIDIA from time to time
to facilitate the evaluation of NVIDIA products. However, the opinions expressed are solely those of the Members.
And Rollo is another famous Nvidia Focus Group member who's been banned from many forums because of behavior which had nothing to do with being a Nvidia ‘Focus Group’ member.
