=D> Now that's what I'm talking about. I'll most definitely have to upgrade my PSU though....I don't think 750W Corsair is going to cut it with that beast and a 5870! Hopefully it'll fit in my Raven case too, haha! I can already hear the wife complaining about not spending enough time with her, hahahaha.

thanks for the review, it proved to be a nice read. That being said my 5870 is doing just fine and even that card sits right near the hard drive cage in the antec 900... wonder if the 5970 could fit its tip inside?

Such a nice card, now only if Folding worked as wel on ATI cards i'd buy one. Also it'll take a while for us to get a hold of one selling out like hot cakes.
