Yeah, and AMD graphics cards generally offer great performance for the price too. I would just be wary of getting them for CrossFire setups at this time.

OK. Here we go; valid results. (I needed to increase the screen resolution in Windows.)

Maybe next time I'll try OCing my 680s some too. :)

The image was larger than my screen resolution which is 1366×768 (so I can read stuff in Windows). The rendering settings I used were only the default extreme performance ones.

I'll just remove the signature for the time being and think about what I want to do with it. I don't think I'd want people to have to follow a link.

Thanks.

Yeah, probably a good idea to look into getting a little stand for it or something. Maybe a re-purposed foot stool without the cushion. Might not have to clean it out as much then either....

I get 37.6GB/s ("winsat mem" test) with 1600MHz quad channel RAM, which seems fast enough to me.

I could pretty easily OC the RAM which is more or less made to be, but I haven't bothered to.
