They only tested the stock cooling, they didn't test it with fans added, so there is no proof which one is better.



guess u didn't see the word OVERALL....the reason they didn't give the coolest case the highest rating was because..other facets of those cases were sub par. Yes we know they didn't add...they said that :/


When boot was published, it was criticized for being elitist in its approach to product reviews, and for the "price is no object" philosophy of its editors. boot was aimed at a hardcore PC enthusiast audience that was highly advanced in its technical understanding, and prepared to pay top dollar for the best PC hardware. When boot relaunched as Maximum PC, it dropped much of the elitist attitude and focused on being accessible to a wider array of PC users and gamers. boot also featured a monthly column by Alex St. John, nicknamed "The Saint", regarding the emerging DirectX standard, which he was instrumental in developing at Microsoft, often leading to some controversy in the gaming community on the merits of DirectX vs. OpenGL. His arguments with id Software's John Carmack became famous during this time in the gaming community.

OHHHHHHH HE DID DX STUFF. I hate DX, I like openGL stuff, and AMD even supports it(whom you love). DX is holding us back, almost as much as consoles.

Okay. Old people aren't the top on tech now. You still think the 580 is good, when it takes up most of your usable RAM.

The 580 has 1.5GB of VRAM. Unless you only are limited to less than 1GB on that card cause of the 32bit lulz.

Okay? GPU-Z just shows how much it has, not how much 32bit limits you to. It reports what the card has, not what the OS limits.

Okay? It's always going to say 3.25 as that's how much RAM it can have total, 3.25. 32bit can use 4GB, if you hack windows.
