    Yeah, I have that PSU too. It's a fantastic piece of hardware.

    I saw newegg is giving away free copies of the new Batman game and a $20 rebate with nvidia card purchases... so I finally broke down and placed an order for an evga superclocked 560ti. After rebate and subtracting the $50 value of the game, it essentially prices the card at $180 - I couldn't resist at that price, especially since I've been wanting one of those cards for quite a while. It'll be a nice upgrade from my GTX260, and should be here on Monday or Tuesday

      Cool! Grats!

      I whimped out and got the cheaper power supply. I'm sure I'll be fine. I will miss the modular cables though.

          I have some sort of resource monitoring running on my system all the time, and when playing Metro my system didnt even go past 3gb of RAM in use. And I had 3 different web browsers, and my email client all running at that time.
          I did not however, remember to check video ram usage then and I have since purged the log so I can't see what was in use.

          FWIW, my system has 8gb system ram, and 512mb vram.

          *edited because I read it wrong, it was 3gb not 2.5gb
