    I'm sure that doesn't sound very good to people who are having a hard time trying to afford such new parts.
    lol, I was only joking...I work part time making $8 an hour inserting flyers...It would take me like a year to save up for a 1900XTX, I can only sit back and drool at it.

    Wow! The fins of the heatsink must have been quite blocked with dust. Not the fan.
