I have bad news and good news.

The bad: the sale of a 'new' GA-K8NSC-939 to me fell through.


The good: I am instead purchasing an Abit AT8 32X and a pair of Diamond HD 3850s. Currently $80 after rebate on the Egg.

Hard luck, but I think you'll be better off with the new rig...I had an Abit AX8, and that was a killer board Great OCer

Runs hot, but there's a fix for the fan speed.

Otherwise, it's faster than what the rest of my rig (as presently set up)!

I knew the CPU speed isn't nearly high enough to get the most out of this card, but that's okay. I had a hankering for a new ATI card, and I had some scratch, so...

I have no idea, I've only had this thing out of a box for 24 hours (including me being asleep for 10, and not able to use it for another 5 or more, and me gaming for basically the rest of the 24 hours )
the internet says 24 hours in some places, so thats what I was going to go by...
but maybe I'll try it in a few hours?
