..what does the "GT" & "GS" acro mean?

Which forum messages are you referring to? regards, Marcel (also looking for a new gfx card) |

Go to www.pcper.com, www.hardocp.com, or http://www.evga.com/community/messag...sp?FORUM_ID=32 I buy a lot of hardware, but after this I would not touch a 7000 series card until it is well documented they have passed good strict quality control. Because cards are being put on the market so quickly the quality suffers, and in the long run the customer pays the price. |

Hope they get it sorted out soon. regards, Marcel |

The "problem" is just vendors going too far with the factory overclocks.
Just skip the OC / CO / Superclock / Extreme editions, save your money, and run the cards at nVidia's reference clock speeds. There shouldn't be any other problems. Overclocking, like warez, should always be free. -- "War is the continuation of politics by other means.
