The 7900GTO is better, though.

Yes I know the 7900GTO is a little better but it is out of stock

The 7950GT has slower clock speed, but thats not a big problem because you can overclock it to 7900GTO core speed


And don't forget that 7950GT has faster memory speed

Thanks. I am using Raidmax. Took out the PSU and put in the stock 120mm fan thats in the back and passed it to the front and got a nice Apevia 120mm Blue Fan for back Although I dont like the side fan. The case looks amazing.

The 7900GTO is better, though.

I agree. Even with Overclock which I really dont know how to do and is going to boost my heat it still doesnt get to the 7900GTO

I can always overclock the 7900GTO memory to that, once I learn. Ill just have to find that VGA somewhere else or wait

It's worth the wait. the 7900GTO is a 7900GTX that is underclocked..

Im about to check if there is any store that sells that. Hopefully there is. Ill buy it next then Ill finish up with the CPU.
