Oh, it's not urban legend, trust me. On eVGA's forums ALONE there are over ONE THOUSAND replies on the "fucked up 5900 ultra" thread. These are single post responses, too. If at least 1,000 people have reported having bad eVGA 5900's, imagine how many of the other companies have them, and then factor in the people that never go to forums. I think bad cards that are in the thousands is a bit more than urban legend. Way to go on that FX, though. You're lucky! It's one kick ass card.
