Well, there you guys have it. In general, teh 5680 performs top of the line, with no problems. I feel comfortable running at any resolution, and can say that everything is smooth.
Another note, is that i saw no signs of any ghosting from the LCD. This is a major plus for any gamer.
I know the review is basic, and i appoligise. If there is anything you would like to se changed or added, please let me know.
