yup . its damn good for hd movies . cpu usage stays below 6 % . . . hd movies runs with ease on my grandma p4 ( 1080p ). .

ofcourse , my card is faulty ( 2 guys landed with similar faulty models in the digit forum too and they've got it replaced ) and i've asked my vendor to replace it . . well , it looks like it might take a bit longer than i thot . so , i was wondering if a cheap cooler ( less than 1k ) can solve the issue .

if u're buying the card , its idle shud be around 55C and load max 75C . thats wen heavily OCed . .my unOCed card goes upto 90C . .so get it replaced immediately if its on the hot side. .this problem is particular to xfx only it seems . .

Guys i have talked to RP Tech guys and they said that there isn't any difference between new and the older (6800 GT) one. There might be a chance that the XFX guy might be misleading our loyal digit bro.
