Watch the show.VictorE solves the last HEXUS.pipeline clue, but now it's time for a new, tougher challenge! Clue: Elevated dictionary? 51a is doubly cursed, twice!
The slight red on the fan leads me to believe that it's an ATi card, and the "twice!" reference could refer to X2...? (Have NO idea about the 51a though...)
So my guess would have to be the Gainward 4870X2
(Gainward being a pun on "elevated dictionary" of gain word)
Hmmmph I think I'll have to think abit harder on this one!![]()
hmmmm alot tougher this one Nick you are cunning like a fox foxconn..
could it be the
Sapphire AMD (ATI) Radeon HD 4870 X2 2GB
doubly cursed, twice!= i think refers to the word Hexing as in witchcraft and sapphire being of hexagonal crystal system??
or are my brain farts becoming a gas of guess work?![]()
Lol I'm being really adamant - I still think it's the AMD/ATI Gainward 4870X2. To me it all makes sense! "YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT FOR THIS" refers to that it isn't actually out yet, and it just generally looks like it in my opinion! Maybe some sound may help, but I can't tell as I have no speakers at work![]()
could 51a be base 16? (cursed being hexed, hexed being hexadecimal...)
do it would be 5 1 10 in base 10
and by 'doubly so' would it be: 5 1 1 0?
or by doubly does it mean: 00000101 00000001 00001010 but that would give:unless it means a straight/pure conversion (i.e. not separating the numbers): 1306 (which split to: 13/06 could be a date...)Code:�
or could it mean that it is in HEX and needs to be in binary which would make it: 010100011010

Surfer, ok, you be adamant... I'll be Marco (the fat one..)
Oblique 80's pseudo punk band references aside, will it help if I tell you it absolutely IS NOT a Gainward 4870X2?
TAKTAK is running *roughly* along the right lines, and surfer's stab at what elevated dictionary means is again, sort of along the right lines but not the right answer.
For the second part of the clue, as TAK suggested, hexidecimal is part of it... but not what he's done with it from there...
So i'm barking up the wrong tree with this i found Nick X-51A's Hypersonic engine firing test??
if so i'll go back to painting my toe nails..![]()
Ok 51a is 1306 convert that to decimal and you get 4870
I think i'll sit back and shut up for now its only fair that someone else has a go..![]()

Bet is it the much waited for 1GB 4870!
Add on:
"elevated dictionary" = High Definition HD
"twice" = x2
Going by this thread ("You're going to have to wait for this one") it's the HIS ("one for you tech guys") version.
HIS HD 4870x2
Right the layout of the power pins points to the direction of the 4870x2. The single 4870 has double power pins side by side so its a x2.
I am going to say MSI R4870x2 2048MB![]()
![]()
![]()
ok going on from taktak
51a converted to decimal 1306, 1306 as hex converted to decimal is 4870. So that's the doubly cursed bit.
Twice would make me think 4870x2.
As duc said elevated dictionary = HD
So I'm gonna guess it's the Sapphire AMD (ATI) Radeon HD 4870 X2 2GB. One for you guys 'cos of the babe on the card. The card is also the red colour that can be seen in the vid at 6secs.
