Cool, i placed a bid on one, we'll see wat happens

make sure you don buy a used card, it isnt worth it.

I bought a brand new BFG 7900gs oc edition for 100 after 50MIR.
That card was really good and had great oc potential.

have you bought it yet or are you still waiting?

Im debating if I should return my processor and gfx card and get the ultra and q6600.

Well mainly im debating between the gtx or ultra...

Have a look a RivaTuner, I haven't used it but apparently it makes O/C'ing your GPU relatively easy.

when increasing the fan speed for you gpu does it decrease the life span for the card?
