As for the review, great as always. As for the card, yeah its impressive & long overdue in the wattage/thermals aspect. BUT I agree with you, while it MAYBE the best atm ... its not in 99% of general consumers budgets when for the same cost you can build a kick ass system that will do what the card can do ... just at lower levels of course. |
The new 79xx cards
are PCI-e 3.0. At least, that's what it says on the box of my 7950.
