    scan have the none extreme version going for £202 grab it and overclock it yourself (you'll get it much higher than the extreme).

    To overclock nvidia cards, you need to install one file called coolbits, then theres a pair of sliders in the nvidia control panel, complete with buttons to self test and make sure you dont blow your card.

    Painfully simple

    Yeah, the manufacturer isn't overly important, nor are 'extreme' editions. I'll walk you through OC'ing the card when it arrives if the clockspeed is important.

    If you're quick scan still have a leadtek single slot one on today only for £202. The offer will change soon though.

    Normally thats because of some information entered incorrectly - or perhaps you've already enabled it.

    Log into our site as normal, and see what the carriage comes up as. If its zero - its on (and if its not - PM me with your real name, postcode and email address)

    Why is the XFX one worthy of 3 exclamation marks?
