    One ugly@ss video card! I was right when I said about a year ago that the video cards of the future would need their own PSU for a functional, stable system...

    If you need to double-up or even triple-up on a technology, that pretty much means that technology needs to be upgraded altogether.
    This card would be a stupid investement if it is not going to be full DirectX 10 compatible...

    Go ahead and cite me a REPUTABLE report that shows that the production model released today has bad caps AND that they were recalled.

    Since the cards were just released today they would have to really be crappy to have bad caps already.

    You might be referring to a Pre-Production or reference card, not the final retail product.

    shut up you idiot. If you read what I posted and the article/updates contained in the article, those were before the release date. The ones on/after the release date are all fine, so you owned yourself, retard.

    no offense.
