I saw a glimmer of a case I would be interested in when I saw the picture but it quickly fizzled as i read about the quality, size (microatx) and those holes being filled with LEDs not fans.

It's pretty damn easy. I even had to the "more work" version and it's a breeze as well. Takes all of 1 minute. Just follow the instructions here. I have 2 6950's @ 6970 clocks/shaders now but they really need some decent drivers to get to their full potential. Where they do work in...

Here are my results from benchmarking a 4870 x2 versus an XFX 6950 unlocked & oc'd to 6970 speeds. Asus Maximus II Formula Q9550 @ 3.5ghz 8gb ram Mafia 2 Native Benchmark FPS: Highest settings 2560x1600/No AAA 4870x2: 44.6 6950: 51.2 6970: 60.00 Highest settings 2560x1600/w AAA 4870x2...

I too wish someone who benched the new 6950 & 6970 cards would have included the venerable 4870x2 in their results. As far as i know it still holds its weight in some scenarios. I've been holding out on upgrading but have finally cracked and purchased an xfx 6950 with intentions of unlocking it...

Well i managed to fix the snow somewhat through fiddling with the colour in the CCC, perhaps it is an AMD/ATI issue. I have since returned the monitor and am now returning the 3rd one i got... They got gradually worse. The second one had 8 dead pixels and this 3rd one has over 10 stuck...

Thanks for your replies. Can any 4870 x2 owners with 30" panels chime in? Do you experience the snowy moving light colour shades? The other guy experiencing it said he didn't see it when he was using his nvidia card.

Hi all, I've been a lurker for quite some time. I recently purchased an LG W3000H-BN 30" monitor and would like your feedback. First of all i'm returning it, whether i'll pick up another one i don't know. It has 2 stuck pixels and a little bit of backlight bleed at the top. The panel also...
