That is true but, What i love about this black card is that its in some games equivolent to a gtx280 at £80 cheaper. lol

Yup. Seems like NVidia are clawing back some ground.

:O you have one hell of a system going on there webbo!

Sorry webbo. You were quoting me wrong. Please note that I've edited my post.

Of course the 765-1585-1311 clocks are NOT the stock clocks.

And yeah, I'm positively sure the new GTX280 will overclock like a beast!

It would be nice to see it's overclocking results.

I trust you that you'll share with us the findings once you overclock it...

Unfortunately Jim has taken up all of my time with upcoming reviews so sadly the XFX 260 is back in it's box. OC3D is growing rapidly so reviewers have little time to play with the goodies they get to review. I would liked to have sat on the review item a little longer but its like being a kid in a sweet shop, there's just so many different things to try!

Thanks for the kind comments though.

You're welcome Webbo!!!

Thanks for the great reviews you're doing guys!

And...I wish you'll have more time 'playing' with the products you get to review, mainly if it's a monsterous video card like the GTX260.

We do get to sample some items for longer but as we are getting busier and busier it is becoming less and less. Not that I would change those circumstances so its all good.

Yeah, even with the current circumstances I'm pretty sure it is fun, mainly if you get to keep some of the samples. But even if not, I bet it's still great, fun and interesting thing to do.

I had the opportunity to become an hardware reviewer for another forum, but I didn't take the job, as I'm working like 11 hours everyday and it's hard for me to keep up with the reviews

I have time for that only during the weekend and I want to spend some time with my wife...

Anyway...KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. And...BACK TO TOPIC!
