1248801 2011-12-17 10:15:00 Awesome that you got it working, but myself I'd never be happy with a new product I had to repair to make work.
Have the sudden urge to test my new card for heat, can't believe I didn't yet.

1248802 2011-12-17 19:31:00 This is true, but considering I have a new PSU that I wasn't planning on, right before Christmas, my options are rather financially limited ;) Chilling_Silence (9)
1248803 2011-12-17 20:25:00 I wouldn't go being to worried about what others think of brands-- a lot of people are all talk and no action, esp when it comes to actually using a certain product - lots of arm chair experts about, when it comes down to it what people want and what they can afford can be two different things.

Powercolor are actually manufactured by FoxConn, who also happens to manufacture many other name brand products, which people think highly of.

As long as it works, and you are happy with its performance and price, stuff what others think - ;)

1248804 2011-12-18 01:28:00 Yeh thanks. Obviously the age-old saying "You get what you pay for" is applicable, because I wouldn't have to have added the additional thermal paste were it a more expensive card.

Still for the price and performance boost, it's a small sacrifice that I'm more than willing to make :)
