Hope my motherboard doesn't explode from the power overload!
UPDATE:
Card works great! Warranty is THREE YEARS according to the box it came in. I registered on the website immediately, so it would be nice to have the lifetime warranty, but 3-years is pretty good too. With the reference cooler it is still cooler than my HD6870, which also had a reference cooler. Haven't really played any insane games, yet, though. Cheers!

 

grats :)

Got mine earlier today as well smile.gif Initial package came with 7970, Sonic, Shogun, Dirt, Deus and Nexuiz... Batlefield 3 is in transit and the HDMI cable is in a void somewhere

I'll probably throw up an unboxing vid too in a few days on my YT channel.

Battlefield 3 didn't come today. I guess it's correct to assume that it IS coming?
I don't know what to think about it though, I previously played the singleplayer of BF3 and, personally, I think it sucks.
Is the multiplayer significantly better? I'll just give the game code to a friend if the multiplayer is not anything special.
I loved the multiplayer and skirmish mode of Battlefield 2, but I never played Bad Company.

It would probably be a GREAT benchmark for this card, though. smile.gif

It seems the deal is back in CANADA for those who missed the first time, but now the card only comes with 4 games.

I just received mine on Tuesday, played BF3 on ultra, flashed the bios 1 to the ghz etd and everything is all good 1050/1500. -> http://legitreviews.com/news/13622/

can't believe that they shipped the bf3 code in its own separate box....lol

still waiting on the HDMI cable which I had no idea until I checked my order.

Dont forget to register your card within 30days for the warranty. thumb.gif

I'm North of the border and got my card end of last week, was worried it wouldn't fit in my NZXT Lexa S but it has 1or2mm to spare biggrin.gif
To the guy above me, hahaha yep they put a BF3 code slip in a box for me too, ***, just put it in an envelope for f*cks sakes kookoo.gif

Here's an unboxing I just did showing everything that's included in the bundle (GPU, HDMI cable, game pack):

Simple bios flash and you get the fastest gpu out there and 6 free games(bf3 valued at around $40) all for for $370. What a killer deal, wish I had $370 to spare.

I got my card but it had no games at all in it ?

Edit : How where your games packed in the box, with the card ? Or where all the games mailed separately?

I believe that there was a card for a little less money that didn't come with the games.
