Well, in a strange turn of events, I told my wife this morning about wishing I could speed up my render jobs with a Titan Black (or two). She said, "why don't you get two now?". Uhh, sounds good to me! Ordered two right then and look forward to testing them this weekend in what will become a pretty maxed out Mac Pro.

Nice wife!

If I told my wife that she would laugh maniacally at me, and once she had recovered, would just tell me to get a second job.

Hope you blokes don't have to ask to go wee-wee.. Glad I'm the breadwinner. If she poo-poo'd any of my workstation purchases, I'd tell her to pipe down and go make me a meatloaf.

this is totally confusing…
cant there be simple table with system. cards. speed. on a standardized scene?
sortable so that we can see what system / cards are best?

Haha.. I just don't tell mine about any of my computer stuff purchases. If she knew how much both these titans cost she'd give birth to triplets right on the spot. What they don't know etc

I told my wife about you guys and asked if I could get 2 black titans. She flipped man. She tore open the side of my case, ripped out the titan and threw it in the fire. Two minutes later she took it out and yelled: THERE, IT'S BLACK NOW, ARE YOU HAPPY!? I cried and went back to doing the dishes.

Seriously, you have a great wife (not to alarm you anything, but I would just check if she's not perhaps having an affair...)
