It's...a cube. I wasn't expecting that. Btw, I'm jealous. Very.

It's actually a rectangular prism, but you can't tell from that pic. |

by definition, even a normal tower is a rectangular prism. |

why 480s when 580s are obviously better on account of being newer? |

Because they don't exist. Besides, the odd numbers are mobile GPUs which suck.

Truth: newer is not better. http://videocardbenchmark.net/gpu_list.php I just got a new laptop, Zurg! 3.5 years I've spent with this junker, and now I'm moving up! Half the battery life, a slightly larger screen with a crappy viewing angle, 8x the RAM, 3.6x the CPU power, 2.6x the hard drive space, and 23.8x the GPU power! $500! (It was $715 factory recertified, and my mom told me she'd pay for part of it, and that was the defining factor that made me go for it now.)P. S. Where'd you hear that the odd-numbered ones are mobiles? The mobile ones actually have an M in their name, like the GTX 280M, which is clearly not an odd number. |

Woops.... meant budget OEM cards. ![]() Also the 280m = the 9800m = the 8800m = the 7800m. Aka they all suck.

@Zurg You should buy a C64. 64KB RAM, 1.023 MHz CPU (for the NTSC version) and the VIC-II GPU. |

why did you open the 470s when you said that you were getting 480s from some deal? |

Because it's EVGA. I use these until they get more 480s, then I put these back in the box and ship them back, and EVGA sends me 480s.

How many fans you got on that thing? In that small a space, with that much processor power, it must make a hella lot. |
