now not to start or add to flase rampant gossip...my evga 88gts was giving arti's at stock mem speeds,downclocking did help.
one day later it got worse so....
back to newegg for rma cus i dont need a beat from the getgo card.
but one bad card out of a few 1000 is bound to happen
and not for nothing i had three of the first 79gt's at the time,all fine to this day so....crap happens
