Tea time here... and of course that means unbranded Keemun tea for me!

That's about the price I paid for it here... ¥5700. And that was down in the computer district where the cheaper prices can be found. But everything tends to be more expensive here. I could have ordered from Amazon, but then I have to add in the shipping charges.

I can't find the GeForce GT 645 for sale here, but I am certainly considering one of the NVIDIA GeForce cards.
My research led me to look for something that had at least 2G of on-board memory and a large cooling system. The one I bought has its fan ducted directly to the outside of the tower! The 3G units came with liquid cooled radiators and were considerably more expensive! I guess the one I got cost about $125 USD... But I figure I use the computer every day for several hours. I don't go out drinking. I don't play the horses or buy expensive theater tickets. The computer is my recreation. Why not spend some money on it and get some real performance.

I almost wish I were a gamer... My computer can deal with the 3D graphics now!
