Get an ASUS G53 instead

Clearly the GTX 470

[QUOTE="ferret-gamer"]Wait to see how the 6 series turns out.-CheeseEater-

Yup. And are no match for the 480.

For $2000 the video card you're getting is just a single GTX470? And an unknown PSU. Hmmm... it's a strong build but not practical in terms of getting your money's worth... Plus an ugly case to boot (it is quite unique though).

The 460 runs cool. You can get a brand that uses aftermarket coolers if you're paranoid like me. MSi Cyclone or Hawk version should be great. I own the Cyclone version.

Use a mini leaf blower.

I just got an xbox wireless adapter for windows to connect my controller to my pc but it's not working. I installed the drivers and nothing. I uninstalled and let windows check for drivers and the adapter doesn't even show up as a recognized device. I have windows 7, AMD Athlon II x4 64, 1TB hdd, and plenty of ram so I know my pc is compatible. I'm starting to wonder if I ordered a defective unit any tips or ideas? I even tried installing the drivers manually from the install cd.

Update Driver Warning
Click Yes

isn't it kinda reduntant asking for opinions on wether its a good case when you have already bought it?, unless you are thinking of returning it and buying a diffrent one

I agree with duderino_23...

But aside from that. You will not regret buying it. I'd using one myself and it's awesome!

GTS 250

My MSi GTX460 Cyclone 1GD5/OC is stable at 850/1700/2000 at stock volts... Max temp for OCCT stress testing is 72 and 70 for Furmark.

It really has a lot of headroom for overclocking given that you buy the version with a good aftermarket cooler.
