    But this is an oven...
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    I know you can fix old nvidia graphics cards by putting them in the oven, but I didn't realise that nvidia's next step would be to make an oven from graphics cards...

    Actually, it would be interesting to see what the ambient temps inside the case rose to during the running of that. I doubt it got up as high as 100C, but I wouldn't be surprised if it got up in the 70s...
