Take a looky at what he left on my doorstep :D

Just a quick uninstall of this old ATI card drivers, and well the whole system gets a new case this time, with some new bling!

More to follow once one card is installed and tested!

wow, where evga?? those cards run for $500 on newegg!


Yea, but I had bought 2 9800 GTX SSCs prior to these GTX 280s. Through EVGA I Stepped Up, meaning I sent my 9800s in, paid the difference, and got the 280s. All said and done, I paid $350 for one 9800, then $133 on top of that for one 280, times that by 2 give you my total price for both GTX 280s. ;)

I just checked newegg, and they have the ECGA super clocked version for $449.99 after a $10 mail in rebate.

I didn't have a choice if I wanted the super clocked or higher, could only get the vanilla, but I know I can OC my cards to those speeds, which might come in time.
