This is a tad exciting, I have to say - BFG OC2, come on baby.. :D
though now it makes my 8800GTS or 9800GTX choices so much harder overall..
Black cards are always sexy. I may have to give zotac a try, since I hear good stuff about them (I'm an Evga man, but the MSI was cheap).
Zotac and Sapphire are two completely different companies. Both use PC Partner as an OEM for their video cards, meaning they have contracted PC Partner to assemble the cards. Certainly not.
