I had a GTX 1080 Gigabyte G1 in the shopping cart at MSY, Had registered an account, gone through and checked to make sure all was correct.
I was just seconds away from clicking the buy button and something stopped me
Started mucking around with my (I thought cacti) GTX 690
cut a long story short - - - one of the DVI connectors on the end of the card is faulty
she's up and running again
been gaming all afternoon and it's rock solid with max temps at 40°C
