    xfx or sapphire vapor x 5770?

    I´ve got the 5750 vapor-x , I´m very happy with it. The fan on auto doesn´t go past 40% and is inaudible. Very low idle temps and has descent heatsinks all over the ram and vr. perfect for OC´n

    Best Graphics card for my budget?

    Just remember the 4850 is a lovely card, but will chew a lot more power and will will run hotter. The 57xx models are also great overclockers , mine runs at 870 core 1430 mem. people are getting 1ghz on the 5770´s core. These cards idle at about 18 w :eek:

    Best Graphics card for my budget?

    With that res you could play on a 4670. I´d go for a 4770 (except the Sapphire blue it´s gimped), 5750 , 5770. What ever is in your budget. I´m running a 5750 on a 19inch 1440 x 900 and getting 70 to 80 fps in res evil 5 . I was running a 4670 on this res but it started to struggle on newer games.

    The thermal paste that´s supplied is normally like toothpaste, that white ceramic crap. I just have a disliking for stock coolers and pastes. For the sake of five bucks,I reckon it´s worth it.

    Wow if I got a surprise like that from my Girl , I would be stoked. :D I´d go for the 5770. It would compliment that machine. It´s powerfull enough, draws very little power when it´s idle , and it´s going to be future proof for a while. If you can´t find that one, have a look at the 5750. :)

    Putting OS on a new Hard Drive.

    Yes . Just have a good read of the tutorial before. You cant squeeze 220g on to a 73g drive, but you can expand 20g to a 73g partition no problem.

    New Headphones time. Puppy 1 Headphones 0

    I have a set of Sennheiser HD 457. they are beautiful. If I had the choice again I would´ve picked closed. The open earphones let a lot of external noise in. The 220 was my favourite but I also ran over the cables with the chair (a couple of thousand times ) and mashed them.

    OCZ pulls through again <3

    That was a nice upgrade. I´m sure you could just buy the longer versions of those cables you want to hide.
