Time To Update

I've decided to go with EVGA 015-P3-1580-AR GeForce GTX 580 (Fermi) 1536MB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card.

I'm sure I'll regret it later and wish I had went with the 460's but what else is new.

But before I do, would the superclocked version be worth it for the extra 20$? EVGA has them for 499.99, with promo newegg has them for 517.55 with shipping...

Probably not mate.

Why pay extra for an overclocked version, when you can overclock it yourself (if that's what you really want).

EDIT: Btw excellent choice.

Powerful single GPU > mid range SLI. Every time.

I've done so much already OCing it would not be that much of a pain in the scheme of things.

Just an e-mail from EVGA, they now have them in stock @ $499.99 so I think I'm gunna go ahead and order from them since NewEgg has them for $549.99 which is still $517.55 with the promo code and shipped. If they have a sale later in November o well, I doubt the 580's will go down in price soon.

Just ordered it from EVGA, $499.99 total, came with free shipping too. NewEgg has $7.56 shipping with a 10% discount code and its still $517.55. Least I saved a few bucks, I'll just have to cry when it comes down in price in a month.
