perverted edition FTW!

The OC version will be priced significantly higher.Isn't it so ? Is it worth the extra price ?

It will definitely be priced higher. To me, it is totally not worth paying the extra price for those pervert edition. I can buy the innocent version and make it perverted myself anyway

u ppl dun think bend bend,
XXX for XFX gfx stands for:
"eXtreme overclocking, eXtreme performance and eXtreme cooling"

Yea, it'd just sell about the same (marginal difference.) All this hoohaa over this is prolly coz of the problematic OC'd versions of the 7900GT in the past (where NVIDIA said it's the vendor's fault)...

Don't blame us, it's a problem with XFX marketing

When you see "XXX", what's the first thing most people think of?

Now what's the second thing? Maybe the movie.

I had no idea what it was supposed to stand for until I read your post

hahahaha, well, maybe they should put the xXx like that just like the movie, so people will think of Vin Diesel first rather than the other thing
