That's a no go on that one. My Q66 is still at stock since I haven't gotten a heatsink for it. I'll try that Nhancer though, thanks for the tip.

You can still OC it to 3.0Ghz on stock But it will be very hot.

The GX2 has micro-stutter, and doesn't have PhysX enabled. BUT, it does perform better and it's only $285.

Stop spreading lies, Micro-Stuttering is not guaranteed on every system. I don't have it. I had it on Grid but since new drivers and Nhancer its been smooth as butter for every game!

Are you talking RMA or Step-up?
