    at the mo i think there is more stock than people were lead to belive if u read a certain website for a certain etailer they make out they are the exclusive etailer for this card, wich they are not they may have more stock but even so bit of a bending of the truth, u never know tho theres alwys someone who waits too long to buy limited edition stuff so you may make a few pounds,

    I have a PC again, woo hoo

    ^ nice one - the way to get around the Mrs is to show her how much money you just saved

    Roflmao - tis alright for them to spend the dough but when you want alittle luxury they are tighter than a nuns....

    I sometimes find that if I say I saved the money so I could spend a little extra on you - although this is a very dangerous tactic. It's better to get a small gift and announce you saved the money on x so you can splashout a little on y.

    As much fun as it may be to play on you computer, its really no fun playing “slap and tickle” with it. Take the Wife out for some dinner and dancing (or what ever she fancies) and play with “her” for a little while.

    Then, when she is good and asleep,….play on the PC!!!

    After all who needs sleep

    BTW, see if you can get it to 540/590 for a full X850XT PE spec but do so with caution.
