Also keep in mind that they have said all ES, binned or what ever CPU's can be used, only restriction is the CPU's must be in the retail chain. So Super Cherrys will rule this game.
Buckeye join in on the GTX260 competition as well. Am I the only one here with 275's?

You can do it!!

Supposedly, it is solely based on GPU score, but we all know that the CPU weighs heavily on a Vantage run and any other benchmark for that matter.

I may need to look into a DICE pot for this one!
Yeah if you want to compete you need a a pot or three. One for the cpu and one for each GPU.

Gunny's got a couple up for grabs. Personally, I would use the money for a 5800 series... but I am a bit of a fanboy
