    Why would a company "provide" a tool capable of frying it's flagship product - to the "general public"?
    People who really needed - will find it.General public is safer
    with out it imo.
    I mean you don't see family minivans that come with nitrous oxide as a standard option - it's just bad for business.
    Could be something simple like not have a disclaimer pop-up about voiding the warranty if the tool is used.

    Besides it's not like without this tool - certain features that you pay for - get disabled (after the fact) when/if
    "öther" hardware is present (cough,cough,coughhhhphysX)


    As for all the reviews (no matter how great/detailed they are) - none are complete without the actual DX11 games.

    edit*
    Can someone please tell the ATI guys that AMD also "makes" (designs) CPUs,and a very few people out there are interested how these new cards would perform on systems other then i7 920.In other words send a couple to the sites that would run these (cards) on Phenom/Athlon 2''s.
