    Because this is 1337? You know *someone* will get one so they can say "You've got a GXT285? Well, my GTX285 is overclocked, has a better cooler *and* 2GB of RAM". There's just some people who have more money than sense.

    So many better ways to spend £350 - a complete new HTPC for instance? or 3 HD4850s? (assuming your motherboard can take them, that is). Or how about a 4850 X2 and putting £90 away for a rainy day? So many ways...
