Very nice. You are setting a great sample for E2180 and Abit IP35-E. I will update as soon as I get a chance.

This is a nVidia thread but I think it is helpful to know some RV670 news. I updated the spec charts. As Diamond leaks some information, RV670Pro is HD3850 and RV670XT is HD 3870.

linskingdom, when I get my 8800GT in 2 weeks time, about posting the speeds.

It's a factory overclocked model. It's GPU is 650MHz and RAM is 1.9GHz. Do I put those in under stock or under overclocked? I don't think I'm going to overclock it right away when I get it.

Just asking.

I'd put the stock ratings in, even though it's factory OC. I got the superclocked version and I just gave the speeds that are being delivered to my door for the list :P

Because you are lucky one.

=P

I got lucky for the rest of my gaming rig. I should have it by the end of the week.
The rest of the parts I need are about $565 on newegg (upgraded from 160GB WD's to 320's for a bigger Raid-0 =P). I tried to apply for their preferred member thing and they turned me down for something =( So a friend bought them for me and I'm just paying him back lol.

As far as i can gather it's not the oc card, i have not put it into my pc as yet as i really wanted to see what other people's views were on the card.
Is the sparkle brand a good make ?, to be honest i have very little experience when it comes to these matters. Will it perform as good as the other makes of the same cards. Your replies will be greatly received. Thanks in advance.

Amazing not one response to my question, but of course it's an american site and i am british no wonder.

lol. Yes, Sparkle is a decent brand. I wouldn't say its the best, because the warranty isn't as good as some other brands like evga, bfg, and xfx.
