I just got my eVGA GT and my Thermaltake 560w PS. I can't install it until tomorrow when I get my VNF-250 MB and AMD64 2800 CPU :( . Maybe I'll enjoy it more with teh tease? Doubt it, but oh well. I've been reading the forums about possible problems, so I hope everything you guys have posted will lead to a smooth installation. I'll let you know :)
 
None, received it last night, and ran a couple of things, then upped it to 400/1100 and it ran it fine, a little warm under load at 86C but it ran the Lighting demo flawlessly. I just upgraded from a Ti4600 and the differences are amazing in games.
 
Cool. I'm going up from a TI4400, so I'm looking forward to the improvement. They say about 80c is the norm. I wonder if I should void the warranty and put on some AS5? Muahahaha :D . Someone posted that it was a hairy experience. Maybe I'll wait. Anyone else tried some interesting thermal improvements/solutions?
 
I've read some that have, but appearantly the heatsinks aren't perfectly flat and they don't touch well with thermal paste to the RAM and GPU.
