Mine's running nice and silent in my M1. And yes, I do consider it to be a shorty :-)
My pic in the other thread compares it to my older full length 570 (that is massive compared to this).
I had a Zotac 9600GT ~4 years ago. Card borked out on me once and had a painless RMA experience too.
I'm waiting for the EVGA 970 SC (blower style) to come back in stock. Will be putting it under water to FINALLY complete my build.
Nope, shipping was $40 for those outside the US (It was shipped directly from LiLi in TW). $240 in total.
There is talk of a second production round. You could buy in during that
I haven't noticed much(or any) in my usage. But then I'm not one with a keen eye for things like lag etc.,
Also, I'm in the US. Not sure my landed cost would help you :-)
Yup, signed up the day the campaign launched :-)
The build is going to have to wait a month or two though. Will have to buy a new motherboard (or mobo+cpu, undecided) and maybe some new RAM.
