    PCI Express card @ $200 or less -- any suggestions?

    GPUs getting hotter? move them outside of case?

    well i doubt the heat generated will increase much past what it is right now, power consumption of CPU/GPU's has kinda hit a platue of sorts, one can only run so much power through a die so small. power usage hasnt gone up much in the last few cycles, and as such head output hasnt changed...
