Thanks for the warning! I very nearly pulled the trigger & bought the 580, but noise levels are very important to me so I have held back for now...

AKASA, MAKE MY SYSTEM AS COOL AS ICE!!

Gibbo, explain yourself further or I shall unleash a highly trained squadron of flying monkeys to lay waste to your Easter eggs... you know, they'll poop on them & stuff, it won't be pleasant!

Just a thought, if DDR 4 is likely to hit next year & assuming AMD want to make use of it, won't it require a new chipset & socket?

That's a good point, however, any quantities over 10 are simply shown as 10+. Regardless of that, these items have not gone out of stock, they have reverted back to the original price having sold through whatever quota Valkia had in mind & as such I don't think the stock counter would have...

How freakin' annoying! When I saw that this was listed as 'today only' I mistakenly assumed it would be on all day. I come back with my credit card in hand & the price has gone back up. Offering great deals is awesome customer service, but please make it clear when stocks are limited...

Absolutely! When you factor in the Spyder Express is worth £85 alone, this is fantastic value for a pro monitor. Toastor

I got one of those Npower meters a couple of weeks back. Surprisingly nice unit for a freebie! I'm no electrical expert, but I don't think it will give a reading when attached to a regular power lead as you it will pick up the flow from both the live & neutral wires and they will effectively...

Works fine for me. Win 7 64, 5770.

I seem to remember John Carmack saying a few months ago that he see's sparse voxel octrees as the future. If he's right (and there's a pretty strong chance that he is!) then I imagine this tech is a good indication of what we can expect a few years from now? Edit: heh, too slow. See post above!

I initially got the SSoD on my 5770 running at stock speeds & voltage, but I can't recall it happening since installing the 9.12 drivers. I do however get random CTD's in some games which I'm pretty sure are graphics driver related. I'm hoping the 10.1 drivers will sort this out.

I've just ordered the Asus one. You can buy my doll for £50 if you want? :D

What's even scarier is that an online store is selling similar Ruby figures for about £85 !!!:eek:

Judging by reviews, the Vapor-X version of the 5750 runs a few decibels quieter than the regular version, so I imagine that the Vapor-X 5770 due in stock tomorrow will be an excellent and quiet card with performance not too far off the 4890.

Agreed!

Apart from the already mentioned point that GPU's are highly specialised, highly parallel number crunching processors, whereas CPU's are general all-round very versatile 'jack of all trades' processors, there's another consideration in scaling a GPU to I7 speeds: heat. Consider the size &...

I don't have personal experience of crossfire and could be wrong, but doesn't one card throttle right down to save power when in 2d mode?

I'm very surprised OCUK haven't got these into stock yet with all the positive attention they're getting.
