I can't believe the first person to get one, Played WOW with it to test it, lol.

I know, it's killing me. This better not be a wind up. I'm edgy and high on coffee. I guessed I needed caffeine for today, but may have drunk too much. Now I'm all-impatient for the pics.

Pics, pics, PICS!!!!

soon as my dongle comes will be running 3 dell 22 inch widescreen monitors @ 5040x1050 will see if it runs sweater than my 285 gtx cards.

Sure I do, everything is on max settings, either high or ultra. wow is set to use all 8 cores, works fine, when i first load i'll give you that my fps drops to 48, but thats more because of my ****ty hard drive than my gpu.. it soon goes back up to 60 again.

Not bad. 2560x1600 would give you an extra 12% though.
