Long overdue upgrade

Finally! after two and a half long years chugging along with my trusty 6800GS, its time to move on.








I have no clue why there are 2 power connectors.:huh: I've connected only a single one and its running every game fine.

Here's the best part, the damage was only 6.6K :clap: from HK
I was considering the 4850 first (thats 8K) but last minute decided to get this one instead. The reason being, I saved 1.5K, this barely gets warm after 1 hr of Crysis, draws less power. The 4850 may be around 10-12% faster on an average but at 1280 res, I doubt I'll notice the dufference.

Now on to the next upgrade, E7200, RAM, PSU, CM690 and a 500GB HDD.:eek:hyeah:
 
Congrats..but I think u should connect both the power connectors....

its a 2 six pin connector gfx card...SLI psu's have connectors for it....

running on one power connector might damage the card....just my 2 cents
