Perhaps this is the best combo for $500 Canadian. Silence check, Performance check, OCing check, Value check, Free AAA games triple Check !

I rather stick to air cooling so as to enable CFX. I don't have room for to 120mm rads and the case I would upgrade too also does not support dual 120mm rads.

hm isnt that a bit much? i mean u can get the 290 for 250 here

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.1 Corinthians 13:4
