Oh, ok! Thanks! It was your topic that got me all in a frizzy about the 265. I don't feel as bad about my 270 cards coming in now. I've been calculating costs all day long, going as far to as to see what my losses would be to sell the 270's and go to the 265's.
Still, I'm sure people will be interested to see if the "splitter" I found works, and what my tests amount to. It'd be interesting to see if there is a cheaper motherboard out there that would benefit from sticking this sucker in.
