Haha, you know me by now Jim I love to tinker as so do you ;)! :D.

ATI Monster i got a Refund for :banana: So I am planning on getting the new geforce 295 when it comes out later this month! I will tell you all about it if/when I do get it and tell you how it goes gaming wise!

Wow you hot on my heals with that GT monster of yours! guess it helps that its factory overclocked too :D! Check that EVGA Precision software out Jim, instead of using Ntune, I find it much better :).

When using Ntune, I could not adjust the VGA fan to manually stay at a high speed but with precision I can finally. This means now I am receiving a stable 50(ish)c idle and 60(ish)c temps during game play! (using just my stock cooling)

Hope you have a fab new year too dood! Here's to us tinkerer's for 2009 aye? hehe! :lol:

Yea I know, I remember years back when a graphics card would last a few years! now they seem to make graphics new graphics cards every few months?? (less then a year now anyways)

Here is a look at the Geforce 295 if your interested Jim, I reckon it looks pretty sweet myself :


Ah right, I thought you would be able to at least use that sofware - At least yours is overclocked(hardware wise) so its not a biggy to you! Plus its nearly on par with my GTS even though its just a GT so you got a GT beast there Jim!

Mine will lock up if I try overclock it anymore - Blue screen of death appears too LOL! But thanks man I am glad its finally working as it should be! :D.

Woot for us tinkerer's!!!!!!! :rock: :cheerleader: :rock:
