I love xfx for its double lifetime warranty, because whoever buys my card will get a warranty with it. That is something almost no one else can offer.

That is the same reason that when I go Nvidia I buy from EVGA as long as you register within the first 30 days of your purchase you have a life time warranty on the product and also 24/7 support in case you blow it up... I joke clearly, but I have seen people fry their cards at 3 in the morning.

5770s are nor around 150 usd pretty cheap for a mid range card.

They don't include one you'll have to get one with a transformer and a molex connector. It shouldn't be to hard to find.

I can vouch for the 5770's! they are a brilliant card and get a big bang for your buck!!

Hi Yoda, I'm not sure if I know you. Can you please list the rest of your hardware and in-game settings/resolution used? I am curious about the frame rate you achieve with the 5770.

Terrorbulky · May 7, 2010 at 5:32 AM

Great, those neon lights just arrived. Lucky enough they came with a transformer

Terrorbulky · May 8, 2010 at 4:23 AM

Bah, damn DPD... My stuff should have arrived yesterday.
Ah well, lets spend another day behind the window.

Edit: Right, this is definitely the last time i ordered from '' uk overclockers '' or any other company that uses Dpd for shipment.
Not sure why i paid 45 bucks shipping costs, then fucking deliver it on time.

call uk overclockers and tell them your stuff didn't arrive by the time specified and you want your shipping costs back.

Terrorbulky · May 10, 2010 at 2:34 AM

I already send a complain, and told them they should cover the shipping costs yeah..
Havent received anything back yet though.

Terrorbulky · May 10, 2010 at 5:00 AM

OMFG, Hm.. Anyone in the UK who would be willing to burn down those UK overclocker ants?
My stuff just arrived, NO FUCKING CASE.

man, o man... i'm pissed. Lol.

Edit: Just got a mail back from them.. They discounted the shipping... Still no case though.

Terrorbulky · May 10, 2010 at 9:12 AM

Hm, they are giving me the refund of my case..
I ordered one from azerty now, its quite similar.

Rofl, my case from overclockers arrived. Although i got my money back, cheers.

poobar · May 11, 2010 at 10:42 AM

hmm im a bit late, but i was wondering why you didnt get an overclocked bundle from overclockers, was it budget or do you want to do it yourself? also in general how did you find their service, im thinking of buying from them also, i have heard about the problems with shipping but prehaps that just an overseas thing, anyway sounds like you have a pretty sweet rig in the makeing...:)

Terrorbulky · May 11, 2010 at 3:39 PM

HOLY SHITE, i'm back.. everything up and running!

poobar, well i think it would be cheaper to do it myself.. running it at 3ghz atm, doing well.. Just finished the building part, now i need to see how far i can clock it.

PointGuard · May 11, 2010 at 4:10 PM

That case is very nice, isnt it?

icomrade · May 11, 2010 at 4:31 PM Official Post

thats my next case unless they come out with a better one.

Looks good Mike. Just curious, is your CPU fan pushing air down or pulling it up?
