Idk if I have any dead pixels in 4 panels but 1 does have less than acceptable backlight bleed.

Awesome give us some performance numbers when you get them.

Also I think the boxes they come in might be the best designed one, for whatever reason I really like the box.

For reference I just ran 3DMark 11

Sapphire 5750 scored: 2332


I will switch out the cards and run with the 7970. Gotta figure out the mega power connectors though

OCZ 600 modular. Took me a couple minutes to find the right wire



This card is like 50% bigger than the 5750 I was running! I had a "oh shite" moment when I realized how close it was to the HDD enclosures. Got in snuggly, cleared the airway booted her up and she is flying!

Right now just the catalyst driver I had already installed. Is there a specific I should be installing?
