Question I'm after a graphics card...

Does anybody know of a passively cooled, single slot, nVidia PCI-E GC? Struggling a bit at the moment - only found 1 and it's a bit pricey (Asus GeForce 8500 GT), and not dual-DVI, which would be a bonus.

No worries. I've ordered stuff from them several times and never had any issues at all with their service.

Ooh, might be tempted by the 7100GS on there. I need to replace the PCI-e card in my Linux box.

This is freaky, I was just thinking about asking about a 7600.
Personally considering this thing: http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=470936

Tib Wars has started to suffer (aka work for about 2/20 seconds) when invading the enemy base (brutal turtle gdi chap with about 200 AA guns).
My Radeon X600Pro from 2nd June 2005 just can't hack it.

My smaller monitor isn't DVI so don't need the dual dvi.

Only real issue, scan apparently can't deliver before Tuesday no matter what I pay.

Tuesday still isn't bad - 2 working days.

I was about to order an HDD from them but found the one I ordered from them last time. New disk & OS rebuild this weekend. :/

I'd expect them to offer Sat. and deliver Mon really. They've got all day Friday to pack and citylink does next day delivery.

Good luck with the rebuild, always fun if somewhat irritating normally!

Sure, if you're prepared to pay more. A certain other well-known site will do it.
