Anyone else getting an "There was an error while processing your request, Please click Here to start over." Error?
I have the KPE in my cart, click checkout, next screen all my info is correct, click next (shipping info page) and I get that error at the top.... 3 different computers same error. Had the same problem a few weeks ago when the hydro was back in stock.

I love the "no step up, lame" comments. I know when I came over initially, I thought the step up would apply, and someone directed me to look at the list.. If you want to step up to a true enthusiast card, open your wallet and step up to the register.
If not, sad face for you.

Well, if I didn't have to put in a new furnace and water heater...... I for one would have stepped up to the register!!! ( Sat on the purchase button with all the info loaded and closed the browser several times now) LOL. But then I would have to unload my Classifieds........ and I just don't want the loss right now for as young as they are. (usage wise) Now I'm just patiently waiting for Ek to release the water blocks so I can finish the water set up. I just hope the Ek blocks are somewhat stunning looking AND the EVGA back plates will work with them too.........which at this point I am doubting.......

Yep, you just have to find the correct screws. I am sure there is a way to get everything working.
I wonder how long it will take Ek to get these blocks out.
And, you can always unload one or two of your cards onto me... I won't cry. "free to good home" will guarantee them a wonderful home. :-p

Yeah, but I gave the idea, so Dibs... I will give you 2 760 SC ACX to hold you over. I will even pay shipping for all items. LoL. On a real note, how are they working for you?

WHOA!!!! Now that's an offer.............I CAN refuse lol (I am blessed with WAYYYYYYYYY too many cards right now with the 970 FTW+ on the way, a lone 770 Classified here too along with some 450's, 480's a 465 and 560Ti's) They (Classifieds) are spectacular, best thing I have had (moved up from the 480's Imagine that LOL) OCing on air I see what most others see and run in to a wall because of temps and graphic tearing and such if I go much above what I had sent you in a PM. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BUT back to the K|ngp|n............. I like the shroud and the RGB, but you lose all the "bling" when you go water and above. Obviously not sure what it's capabilities will be on air ..........defeats the snazzy shroud when you remove it to clock the bajeebus out of it on water,DICE and LN. (If your looking for "pretty") (something that only us geeks/ modders can appreciate I guess) Now if whomever were to make a "snazzy" water block for them....... I might reconsider my thoughts

The question is, when is the actual release on this card? No point in buying one if the release is in March, by then the 390X will release or possibly the Titan X, especially for $750

600 amps? lol I think you mean 600 watts no one has a 7200 watt power supply just for their video card. 600 amps x 12volts = 7200 watts of current. 50 amps is still a hell of a lot of juice.

Who said anything about a 12V rail? GPUs are on a much smaller operating voltage, and higher current draw.

That's what I was thinking , I wanna see what "++" means  . That hydro copper with the same specs for only an extra $50.00 is looking like a sweet deal ... need more info
