Oh that really sucks. I hope you have a backup of whatever important documents and game saves from the conked drive.
 
Nope. Unfortunately, I didn't back up anything. Some of the stuff was spread across to my friends. The rest will just need to be re-downloaded. I'll try to re-attach the drive and see if there is just enough life in it to back a few things up. My f*ckin Skyrim save is now gone with it. I knew I should have backed it up. What a disaster!

They didn't have stock for 6950 1 or 2GB. Unfortunately, they didn't have GTX560Ti Twin Frozr edition either. However, the person at the counter informed me that the GTX560Ti 2GB Twin Frozr would be available by Monday, so I decided to wait. The alternatives I had was EVGA GTX560Ti SC 1GB Edition for 15.3k and Asus GTX560Ti 1GB DirectCU II for 14.5k. I didn't go for Asus as their distributor is Rashi and I had heard more bad RMA experiences than good ones. EVGA, I'm not sure why I didn't go for it, but decided to get the Twin Frozr once it arrives. So yeah, I'm set on the PSU side, now just waiting for the card.

that is super news, cause I know how it felt when I lost my boderlands saved game at L26, and redid the entire gig. But more OT, is the skyrim legit copy, planing on giving it a shot
 
Hey we have all the time in the world, right? Besides, once I get my new card, we can have maxed out gaming performance.

OT: Pick up Darkness II, we'll co-op that once Payday: The Heist is over.

@Jasku: The answer is, no.
 
Green team, Nvidia.

He got 560Ti, that he was considering with the AMD counterpart.

And he is missing since then

*ahem*

Don't worry, I haven't gone AWOL. I had to install all the essential stuff, since my OS re-install. So was busy with that and re-installing the required games. I tried out a Skyrim this morning on Ultra settings and Serious Sam 3: BFE with Ultra as well, both performed exceptionally well, considering my ancient CPU.

Payday: The Heist runs flawlessly as well. It used to drops frames pretty badly with V-Sync enabled on my earlier card.

I have a question for my fellow green owners; what setting in Nvidia control panel regulates the color and contrast settings across games? I have noticed 2 settings for color adjustment; Video & Desktop color management. I tried the video adjustment and it only managed the videos being played. ATI was much easier, as I could set individual color profiles and activate them via any hotkey. This has got my confused.
