I think gaming is more than just the fps.
Your point is 100% valid. I'm not one for tweaking to get a few extra points either. There's a few things I can get with the sale of this card. Not just a sound card.

I never did plan on 3-Way as the machine is more for work than play.

It's only ran in the machine for 60 mins to make sure it's A ok and it's still yet to be registered. It's from the US though. But I won't be selling it off cheap.

It may see it's way to ebay

Will do when I find out what I'm doing (ie stepping up the other two).

Remember it's the US one so the registration will have to be done as so. These are £360 in the UK

lol..yeh...but I may sell this one around £280.

I'm not sure though as 3 x 285s is supposed to be better than 2 x 295s. I have the 3 285s and getting the 295s will be a mess on.
