Based on the Steam Surveys the 295 was a pretty niche purchase. I'd offer to take a picture of mine if you'd think it'd help, but I gather the photos that evga has posted are just as good if not better.


Could you link me to these photos? I haven't seen them and they might help.

Can you just sell it with the water cooler installed?


Unfortunatly I have already removed the waterblock. I guess I could reassemble it, but I have no way of testing it as I have dissassembled the water cooling loop as well.

Re: Help with FSX Build

Don't know if this will help, but I play FSX on my rig, windowed, because my 23" monitor @ default resolution is 1920x1080 and everything is streched. It played perfectly on my older 19" LCD @ 1280x1024. FSX doesn't play well with wide screen resolutons.

Watercooling Help

I am planning on setting up a single watercooling loop in my computer. I will be cooling a Q9650 @ 4Ghz, P45 northbridge chipset, (Asus Maximus II Formula), and a GTX 295. I'm not sure if I should go with this 1 radiator http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPa...
