DazzleHP Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Ain't she a beaut! I named her Gigi.She was born just 30 mins ago and i couldn't wait to show you guys a pic. I'll let you guys know how well she settles in. I'm wondering what to feed her at the moment. Probably a bit of Skyrim, that always goes down well in the morning! Ahhh it feels good to be a Dad again after four years 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansolo77 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I don't know if it's any good or not, been out of the hardware scene for a long time. So that being said, I'm jealous because you have something new and nice, not because it's better than mine (even though it probably is).

DazzleHP Posted October 18, 2013 Author Share Posted October 18, 2013 Hey folks,Unfortunately after i took the pic i popped it in and it turned out to be DOA I was soooo gutted you have no idea! I don't get these opportunities often and it was actually an early b-day present for doing some technical favors. 4 years since i had a new GPU and all i got was a powerful hairdryer ideal for triplets I was hoping the replacement would come by today but no such luck. I guess they're still trying to determine whether i threw it against the wall or something It's the first DOA bit of hardware i've had in 18 years so can't complain i guess - some may say that's extremely lucky!@Han - lol i can't fault your logic - or enthusiasm buddy! @null - thanks and you knows it dawg! I'll probs do a vid of some sort when the replacement arrives @Dracs - I know right! It's not top-of-the-range but dam it's more than i could of hoped for! @KRC - I was (and still am now) running a factory OC 1GB GDDR5 HD5750. It's factory OC'ed to 800mhz but have been running it at 850mhz for the last 12months. It's made by Sapphire and can honestly say its the single best hardware investment i've ever made. It's an absolute cracking card and it's only now (after 4 years) that i'm starting to have to run things lower than meduim/high I will never hesitate to buy a Sapphire GPU in the future Anyways i'll keep you guys updated when the replacement finally arrives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DazzleHP Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 How does it compare to my eVGA NVidia GeForce GTS250? (LINK) That's what I have right now.Here are a couple of virtual or "theoretical" comparisons. Of course in the real world things would be different with our exact cards but should give you a good overall idea hwcompare.comgame-debate.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
