What are your system specs?

I know, but you could have saved a whole lot though and it'll run a heck lot cooler, but whats done is done

Ah well i got it at cost (30 quid) so it's not that expensive an it works well enough for what I wan't to use it for so no big loss.

Well i have been using my Asus EN8500GT Silent for a week now an I must say this is quite a nice card for the price, sure it's not the best but it's good for what i wan't to use it for an i can't complain with the performance. The only game i play is stalker an it runs that fine.

My first build had an ECS mb in it originally. Wish I knew what I was doing when I bought it.
