Sapphire HD 6970

I just replaced my KDS VS-195e 19" CRT. Any CRT die hards want it?

I purchased a mini-displayport to displayport cable off of amazon: http://www.amazon.com/DisplayPort-32AWG-Cable-Plated-Connectors/dp/B0034X6SCY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1325921182&sr=8-1and have had zero error messages. I think the issue might be with the mini displayport dongle adapter thingie...

I just picked up one of these Skythe graphics card coolers because the 480 stock fan is too loud. It might work for you.

Thanks... I guess I was operating on old info. I researched the i3, i5, and i7 gaming benchmarks on equal setups and the variance was greater than I expected. I will return the i3. I already have an i5 2500 on order. Newegg has a 15 buck off promo code on it. Thanks for the info!

Hmm I just found a $234.99 free shipping. I guess I should keep searching. Thanks for the endorsement. Cheers!

Hello... I am interested in an intel 510 SSD. Does anyone know of a good deal on one? Best I have found so far is $279.99. Thanks for any input. Cheers!

Thanks. Yes, I agree GTX 480. I appreciate the help identifying it. Cheers!

Umm... no. I know it is not fake because I have it in my hands and I am going to build a computer around it. I just want to know what it is. I think it is a GTX 570 but I could be wrong.

Hello everyone. I just received an nvidia reference video card but I do not know how to identify it. At the moment I cannot plug it in because I am going to build a computer around it. I was unsuccessful at finding anything for the serial number P1022-B00-1123 Here are pictures front and...
