Hey Tar,
Just curious why the GTS's? I ask bacause I just bought a pair of evga G80 models w/ 640Mb of RAM a piece and since they have the 112 shaders I see darn near double the frames in most apps over my old x1900xtx. You are the ONLY person I've seen recommend 'em as everyone says to go with the newer GTs w/ 512 of RAM.

Snake: I saw on here somewhere someone posted a pic. of blown capacitors on the 7XXX series of cards,apparently a bad batch was sent out and a LOT of cards were affected.
