I was lucky enough to win the MSI 7770 that OC3D was giving away there just before the new year and rather than being one of those people that wins something and you never hear from again I thought I'd pop by to express my thanks to Tom and OC3D for the competition.
It's a really nice looking card in the flesh, blue and black work quite well. Can't wait to get it fired up and get some gaming done on it. If it's half as cool and quiet as my 7850 TF3 from MSI I'll be delighted.
Some pics of the card below
Going to look about getting a build sorted today for it, likely just get something similar to what I posted in this thread. For anyone wondering this was the build that I chose in the thread and I'll likely end up with something similar to this as I'd been planning to build myself a budget rig to keep at uni for gaming and now that I've got this 7770 the wheels are in motion. I've been toying around with this rig (and yes I know it seems odd getting a Z75 board with a Pentium but for the sake of £15 it at least gives me the option to upgrade to something like a 3570K down the line if I get a good deal) as I've already got RAM and an HDD sorted, but I'll have to see what happens
Again, thanks ever so much Tom and OC3D!
