I've read this post again and now I see why GZ said, that my 450W PSU may not be just enough.
In its description I put W instead of A :oops: Now is correct 4 x 12V/20A max. 35A.
I am pondering still over my CPU if is it enough.
Never mind, it is to late.
And remember that there is one and only one IP,
which you must never forget:

Have installed new graphics card and did the first test. UT99 works excellent, brightnes is set on 8/10, max GPU temperature was below 40 degrees Celsius.
My first impressions are very positive.

Make sure you update the Drivers from Nividas web site. The ones that come on the disk are old and the newer ones usually perform much better.
I killed a six-pack just to watch it die.
Without question the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you the wheel was also a fine invention, but a wheel does not go as well with pizza.

You are right. The included drivers are dated 20/09/2010.
