    Given that this is aimed at the Ultra hight end, where are the water blocks? Wish they'd give an option to ship with an all in one fitted....

    Lots of people like to choose their own water blocks though, and many question the ability of Mobo manufacturers to apply thermal paste. Could be a reason for them not to do it.

    If they're providing the BigFoot chips as an included extra, why don't they build them into the motherboard rather than leaving it on an add-in card?

    LOL, free.

    That and it gets in the way of the 4 PCI-e slots they're trying to flog you.
    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.

    Speaking of, did Hexus ever get that review sample from BigFoot Networks?
