I HAVE A NEW TOY.

"It makes a sound like God Himself getting an erection. You know, a faint thrumming whirrr and a little halo?"

So, my graphics card threw a heat sink and needed to be replaced under warranty.

They didn't have any more of my cards, so they sent me a replacement.

My Nvidia GeForce GTX 295 and I are going to have a little bit of ALONE TIME together now.

HO-LEE-SHIT.

Did you seriously just drop $500+ (!) on a video card?

I want to live in a world where I can do that.

Sounds like it was sent as a warranty replacement for a lesser, out-of-stock card.

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

You are correct.

No.

This was what they sent me to replace my previous card, which was both under warranty and dead.
