That sucks.......... luck of the draw on a card costing $ 100.00 more than reference is hard to swallow for me

But I guess the drive for gold compells enough people to buy enough of them for MSI to keep offering them up ....

<<<<one of the suckrs. But i learn from my mistakes...most of the time. But hell i'm desprate enough for bointage to try anything, Even another Lightning if they come out with one in the 580 flavor. The new bot might change that attitude for me. And it might be a good thing financially..as much as i hate the idea of the new bot revision to come.

Edit: Lets not forget the Ferengi rule of aqusition #62 The riskier the road, the greater the profit.

We all are suckers when it comes down to it. We have all spent the cash for the best of the best one time or another, what gets me on the lightnings is so many of our OCA bretheren got ripped the fuck off on these cards .... I guess that is why it is such a sore spot, but I as well am a gluten for punishment .........

I think I may work towards a SOC 580 when availible .... That is if I can get some freaking work

Unfortunatly they are the same deal I am sure ..... pot luck
