Bought this card yesterday at bestbuy, it's overclocked from the factory with liquid cooling, it came with 1 free movie which I'm downloading now and a subscription to ESEA premium for 3 months, for some reason their servers are half empty so whats your take on ESEA?

Why would you buy a video card at Best Buy? They probably charged you at least $50 more than Newegg's price.

 

edit: Yeah, 560s are $250-330 from Best Buy, $190-235 on Newegg.

Bestbuy was only 20 bucks more so not bad and I got it right away rather than waiting so I could install it with the new psu.

Just edited my post, also I don't see a GFX card on both websites with a $20 price difference. Personally I try not to shop at Best Buy, they scam countless people every day with their Geek Squad "technical support" and price gouging. Its not a big deal though, grats on the new card, should run TW2 quite well.

Yea the witcher 2 runs really well on it ty, really brings the cinematic feel and reality to the game. Also tried dead space 2 on it, game is even more scarier now lol. When I bought my comp there they tried selling me on geek squad, heard so many horror stories so Isaid no thanks.

This is my take of ESEA.

Anyways, probably bad move buying it from Best Buy. Nonetheless, the 560 imo is one of the best mid range cards you could get for its price so the extra money you probably payed isn't that big of a deal.

 

As for ESEA. It's pretty much just like LoL's 5v5 games but for competitive CSS where either a) people work together like its their job or b) people rage and critique each other like its their job. There are special cases like in my video when you come across hilarious as fuck people. I once got a person who rushed de_nuke vents T side every round and would knife the CTs chasing him in vents.
