[Chainspell]

Another question to the people who already got theirs, can you change the color of your Alien head that is located on the lid?

[sparklesmcgraw]

I know some people here have them already. Stop playing and post some reviews!

Aqeb , I dont think you should go for the 2GB GT650M. At that resolution , the extra gigabyte wont make a difference. It wont really come in handy unless your connecting 2 or more monitors to it or something

I ordered the 2GB version, but for one reason only.. nothing to do with resolution or monitors.

I was just paranoid that the 1GB version might be inferior in some other way (number of shaders, clock speed etc), and at the time there was no way of confirming for definite one way or the other. There are often multiple versions of the same graphics card, and until these things are out in the wild, no-one really knows for sure.

So I spent the £50 to make sure

What if the 2GB model is the inferior chip, and the 1GB model is best?

They are the same, same clock speed everything is the same, only VRAM differs I even wonder if 1GB version aren't the same as 2GB version but with 1GB locked.
