I remember a beta driver a couple of cycles ago making my 650ti do that. Only on metro though, it was like playing in an acid trip matrix.

Not PC related obviously but I don't give a shite I am going to brag anyway. I just bought two of these still in the protective wrapping for $30 each. Going to pick them up this week.

This is a pic of one of them



I just sold some commercial kitchen equipment I had left over from my store that I had in storage this week and now I am buying more of it.

I can sell those easily for $750 each in a matter of a week or two I think.

Might in a little bit.

There are 10 more of them things for sale and I am trying to convince myself to buy them all and put them in storage until I can sell them all.

Because I am worried I will sit on them for a year or longer trying to unload them all. No big deal if I do I guess but moving 2 = easy. Unloading 12 = limited local market.

08:08AM – User with GTX 680's in SLI reports computer will not boot with 320.18 display drivers installed. Disabling SLI or reverting back to 314.xx fixes the issue.


I can't use the newer drivers. I had to revert back to 314.xxx and everything works great so fortunately it didn't destroy my expensive twin GTX Classifieds.

The newer drivers caused constant crashes.

That's where I sell mine. The fees are horrible, but it's so convenient. List the item, have instantly spendable paypal money when it sells (I have a paypal debit card), print the shipping label at home, then schedule USPS to pick it up from my porch for free the next morning (online).

It's free to list now, so you can just put a fixed price listing out there and see who will pay it, and you've lost nothing if it doesn't sell.

The only thing I hate (besides fees) is the potential to be scammed. If a buyer pays via CC and files a chargeback, they've already won in the eyes of paypal. A slight variation on the scam is for the credit card to be stolen to begin with. A while back, I sold a $125 keyboard online to someone with 0 feedback. Got the money instantly, shipped it the next day, moved on. Then a couple weeks later I get a chargeback notice (unauthorized use of card) from paypal on the keyboard. It was only then that I noticed the tracking info said that the house was vacant. Sure enough, USPS took its sweet time but eventually I got the keyboard back. I think I got lucky that the thief tried to ship the keyboard to a house he knew was abandoned, for sale, or otherwise vacant, but USPS is pretty good about having that information and not just stuffing the mailbox with junk every day or leaving packages. Otherwise, I could've been out the money and the keyboard.

From now on, for any item of particular value or popularity, I think I'm going to ask people with 0 feedback to contact me before bidding. eBay doesn't officially allow you to automatically block bidders with 0 feedback (that would kill their business), so that's the next best thing.

Amazon fees are a little less but they only let you charge so much for shipping so it can be wash unless you set your price knowing this. They also don't charge the 2.9% transaction fee to take payments like Paypal does. All in all you save about 5-6%. They hold your money for a week or two but you have way less chance of getting scammed on there vs Ebay.

Stout I literally just purchased this board today for my AMD Rig. I will be giving my mATX board currently in use to my GF. She doesn't game but does a little PhotoShop and LightRoom work.

How did you score all that for $340 shipped? Is anything broken?
