Nice, I have the 512MB version and similar specs to you. I run everything maxed out without any performance issues (except Crysis ofc).

I think its a good card and I don't really think I'll be missing anything much from the Toxic. Give me your thoughts please and thanks.



Edit: I got a rep point...How do I know who gave it to me and why? Who did I help? Or is it that I'm just cool...
Why did the card crap out again ? Did you start folding again ?

Nice card buy though.

Unfortunately you cannot see who repped you at current as we have had to take that system down for the moment as it was causing site lag issues. We hope to have it back soon.

Well, that's okay I was just wondering if I could see who and why.

The card crapped out, I think because of overheating. Maybe the driver crapped out and the fan didn't run as it was supposed to and then because of the folding...the heat just got too much.

I haven't started folding again yet (don't know if I should). Then again, the Nvidia driver kept malfunctioning so....maybe folding on an ATI card (might be a bit slower) might be more stable.

Folding on an ATI card will not offer any extra stability IMO. I have never had an issue with Nvidia drivers and Folding.
