Looks like the relabeling works very well, else they would have stopped this "experiment" after the 8800-->9800 relable. If you ask me, the last really good nvidia card was the 7xxx series, I had 2 7900GTs (one still around here) - fast, not too expensive & silent. ID: 33756 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

For Ice/Furyan - how to do it properly :) http://www.boingboing.net/2010/01/05/avatar-makeup-tutori.html You're just jelous that I discovered the film and stills to use for my avatar/profile many months ago way before you. It's probably the best avatar/signature/profile combination going in BOINC right now, even though I still prefer Fosters. ID: 35111 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
