    Props to OCZ

    I recently upgraded to a x1900xt from an x850xt. My powerstream 520 couldnt handle the load jump... considering I have a ton of other stuff on it as well. Watercooling and overclocking can help tax a psu pretty good! So after a week or so of having the new card... the 520 gave up the ghost...

    PPU coding? ... whats the point

    Considering that many big name developers (EA) can't release a game that isnt full of bugs to begin with... It should be interesting to see the NIGHTMARE of crashing systems and memory hog applications to ensue when they have yet another add-in card to try to code for. Anyone else besides me...

    Why AMD?
