Anubis, it was an RMA, so I had no choice what I received, but it was damn nice of eVGA to replace the 7900GT with a better card. Actually, I remember the Hot Deals thread on the eVGA fire sale of 7800/7900 cards which were speculated to be the Step Up cards from the course of the year. Either way, I didn't have nough PSU to push the 8800, so the 7950gx2 fit very well in my overall plans.
Wow, just got a call from a vendor open house that I attended yesterday and I won a 19" widescreen LCD, so add that to the list, even tho its not technically buying for myself.
