Ive been using it for about 2 days now. Havent had any problems. Many people were getting much better AA and AF performance, but so far I any of that. Of course Im bottlenecked so thats a big factor.

Anyone notice how the "Xboxed" the DirectX Logo?

Yeah, but IMO the DirectX logo looks a hell of a lot crappier.
