To replace my GTX 680 - nvidia.com has them in stock at the moment. Probably not for long though! Anyway, gonna have fun upgrading this weekend.

Indeed the AMD in my system is a GPU and the CPU is an Intel chip. ;)

I agree that AMD might be better with their GPUs than their CPUs, although their mainstay for CPUs seems to be the console market at the moment.

I'm sorry but I worked on a bunch of PC's with AMD processors and they are so slow compared to Intel's! I'm just saying I always had NVIDIA and updating drivers for the ATI's seams so much more complicated IMO on other PC's that I worked on.@ wrote:
Never had a single crash due to my AMD GPU in all of the 7 years I have had the current system. It has been rock solid...but then again I don't really push it as I don't game or do anything really graphics intensive. ;)

I will not go near any AMD processors or AMD ATI Graphics cards Intel and NVIDIA always. I don't even look at them if i see the AMD sticker!

Indeed...don't laugh by my system uses a ATI Radeon HD 5770...LOL...but it still does the job...and perhaps one day I may try an upgrade. ;)
As I said, good luck with the upgrade and enjoy playing with your new toy, once installed...:D

Yeah it's pretty pricey but I've been saving up for a while. I'm on a GTX 680, so I figure buying a new graphics card every 4 years isn't a bad refresh schedule.

The price is insane...Webroot must be paying you really well, or you must be moonlighting? ;)
No, seriously...enjoy! :D
