UPS knocked a fan loose, and unhooked my system lighting, other than that it's running great so far.
 
I installed my keyboard/mouse drivers, and played around with crysis for a bit.
 
It auto detected Very high!  I went ahead and put it's AA on 16xQ just to have a look and omg it's amazing.
 
I was getting 25-35 fps on that first beach, doubt that will hold up when I keep playing..will have to crank down the AA I'm sure.
 
Can you guys recommend software to check my cpu/vid card temps?
 
I want to put it through some tests and keep an eye on the heat.
 
 
Thanks,
 
Avarice/Chris

you can use a new proggie called GPU-Z (no relation to CPU-Z) to check GPU temperatures, it's very useful.
