Free entry for a one of a kind signature edition graphics card that eats 99.999%+ of existing VGA's for breakfast?......Yeah, OK, you talked me into it - now that was a tough 0.2 seconds!

As usual, many pll need an acceleration for EGO. I want to win one , definitely! but with W1yyard signature will not work better ,lights and double size through the required space also will not improved preformance. No matter what i would have it ! as this is an expensive purchase for me, I can not buy because here sells for 1,480€ . which is almost half of my pension in a year.:) Signature would not be there to see, as i would give on card water block.
Your standard response has been duly noted, Please collect you prescription from the receptionist on the way out
