A $1000 card with only 2GB?

Yep terrible right?

It is advertised at 4GB but it is only 2GB per GPU so the bandwidth is only 2GB.

I don't play on surround anymore like I did with my 2 x 4GB 670s so I'm good. Can not wait until the 780 is released so I can dumb the damn 690 with VRAM restrictions.

I have 3 so I am good.

Yea my damn 690 only has 2GB so I can't run certain Crysis maps with my mods. frickking terrible.
Thought everyone used mods for Skyrim and Crysis.

ETA:

FYI make sure you have 2+ GB of VRAM if you are running textures on high. Some of those mods use a ton of VRAM.

A 775 socket?

Grab you a $50 1155 and then that 7850. This way you won't have that bottleneck.

ETA: You could do P67.

Arent the velociraptors 3.5"?

No they are 2.5" drives which spin @ 10K RPMs. That is what makes them so fast.

The cooler(black part) on them measure 3.5" edge to edge. You can take the cooler off.

I would just grab a 10k RPM WD Velociraptor. I have a 500GB version and thing doesn't perform like an SSD but Reads/Writes pretty well. I store games that don't have a ton of map loading on it.

ETA: That 500GB raptor runs around $140 now? I purchased it when it was still high though, I think $199.

My main games are on a 240GB Agility 4 with my boot drive/PS/LR drive being a 256GB Vertex 4.

Yea the pump is the loudest thing in my setup.

Does that H80 make any grinding noise? If not, you won the pump lottery.. gratz!
I am ready for this.

Looking forward to this over Watch Dogs and The Last of Us. (I believe The Last of Us will be a total let down)

Great job bro.

How much did that H80 tone down the noise?

re: New Case for PC Gaming Build.

Anyone looking for an SSD for storage should check this out. I keep my games that require a ton of map loading on the exact same SSD. Paid around 209 when I purchased months ago.

$129 - OCZ Agility 4 256GB SSD
Is the Gaming Board renting out the Camelot Club for this?

Download the Download Client from Battle.net

Worked fine for me but I also never used a CD to download the game.

Yes some of them did have batteries. Not all.

Yea but you can get 2 male ends for the cables. That will be like having your cables sleeved.

It is a long process and he does a great job. Those prices are on par.
