Awesome Tosh! ATI showed you firsthand why they are a great company by giving you that card. Now after you get it installed and see how it performs you will see another reason why ATI rocks!

Hey Craig he got it from ATI when he went to their headquarters in Santa Clara CA. They suprised him with it!

I want that card!!! That is exactly the kind of card I would love to have, I would buy the new ZM80C Heatpipe + OPT-1 Fan. It would fit with those tiny little ram sinks. And it would kickass.

I'm jealous.. not just of the card, but the fact that you had the opportunity to visit ATI HQ. I wish I could check it out. Of course, I probably wouldn't want to leave once I got there.
