TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Revised: Horrible

Quiet and when working is pretty nice.

I apparently got a bad card and some of the software issues I mentioned earlier were related to the fact that they are not compatible to DirectX 10. NOT the card manufactures fault. I was able to have the RMA done through Newegg and purchase a different card. I guess I was just one of the unlucky ones to recieve a defective card.

Goes to show you, make sure what you buy will work with what you want it to work with. I wanted a new computer to work with 3ds max and Maya faster and easier, goes to show that just because everything is newer (hardware wise) doesnt mean it will work 100% with the software. Computers are getting really delicate now in regards of compatibility not like before when things were easy, buy it install it and plug n play. Now its research for a few weeks or months then buy it, do a little trial and error and be happy :D.
