fuck this shit my mom decides to use part of the money for something she needed.

I only have $80 now for the card which is $70 (fullprice) but there is one there for $60 on sale (5670 btw) and then I have $50 bestbuy card I will use for psu.

HOWEVER my mom is being a B*** and might not get it because she "doesn't want me to break it" And my friend on skype was going to help me using my video chat on skype.

fuckfuck +Tax on the $70 5670 is $76 + $7 shipping = $83 so I have to get the one on sale.

Also nobody answered my question whats a safe operating tempature for a gpu? Any in the 5xxx series

Probably a GPU's temperature is idle at about 40 degrees Celsius and I think a high of 70 degrees? Ask other people though.

max temp for most things are 90*c so your 5 series is fine

my 5550 easily got to 45*c idle

I went out and bought an actual lockbox to keep my money in, I count it frequently...

Even though my mom isn't going to steal from me, and I have no siblings, but whatever.

I told her not to, but she threatens me with it.

My grandma might give me like $100 dollars and my mom says I can only have $20 of that -_-.

I am disappoint with 5770




I also realized they are running this on a crazy shit resolutions compared to mine. http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/wiki/ATI_Radeon_5770_5750_-_Featured_Review_-_Page_11

They were also testing this eyeinfinity stuff which I don't need.

the 5830 was not much better (also newegg is out of stock)
