Both cards are sold. My Asus 760 strikers in SLI come today. I found with what games I play and what I do with my PC lately I don't need 2 super powerful cards. A pair of these would be better for my needs.

I always wanted this too. I had to make it a reality

My 2 Asus strikers came. 1 has a faulty LED. Sent it back for replacement.

Those Asus Strikers cards look sweet, I can't wait to see them installed along with the rest of your gear. This is going to look awesome

The colour scheme is soo good! Loving the red & black best colours in my opinion!

I know red and black have been done to death,but to me it's new. I've never done these colours before. It's always been blue black or white black, but never red. My theme is really red and white with a little black. My 2 front fans are 140 corsair white LED and the case lighting will be white also.

Cards look great, seriously nice looking ones. Is it a factory overclocked 760?

I think so? I haven't really played with them yet. I had one of them with a red led fault so I sent it back. Replacement comes tomorrow I'll install it on my other pc and have a play.

My second Asus Striker came back with the same issue as my original one did :mad:

ggrrrrrrr. Have to send it back again

Looks fantastic Retro, went with a red/black/white theme this time too. I know its been done so many times but it justs works so well. I can imagine your champing at the bit to get the cpu in and the system up and running.

Looking good David :cool:

for years I thought red was just too in your face and didn't like it, but now that I'm doing it I actually really like it. I'm so biting my nails waiting for the 4790k. I wanted to start her up , but can't

I double checked all wires and connections. I can only hope she starts up when I push the power button

Thanks Neil. I received the replacement second card back and it seems like to me at least, they sent me the same card back>? I was not happy when I saw the front LED light up green. It should be blue.. My other striker is fine...I asked them to test card before sending the next one.

These cards look exceptionally good, just not sure I can stomach the price, especially as you cab get a decent 770 for the same money. Tempting for looks alone though!!

Agree, but the 770's at that price are super nasty looking. I bought these for for the looks and my theme really.

Very true. I must admit I'm very tempted myself, guru 3d seemed to get some very good overclocks out of them. They would make a good couple of cards to go with the Asus g sync monitor until the full fat 800 series comes out.

Just wish they were like 25 cheaper. I know its not a lot just would sweeten the deal
