Just got my GPU. I ordered a 650Ti, but I got a 650 PNY XLR8 Accelerated with 1024 MB GDDR5 VRAM (didn't even know DDR5 existed). The card seems to do better than what I ordered. At first, with this shitty Core 2 Duo E7400 at 2.80 GHz (it's locked btw, I couldn't OC it), I was getting about 60 fps at the beginning, and as low as 5 in battles. Now, I had to cap the FPS to 60 in my variables because it would get so high the GPU would get to 60+ degrees from rendering useless frames (as many as 500 in cutscenes on Ultra settings).

So, my final word of this card: GET IT! Until I upgrade this CPU, I won't see the card's true potential, but seeing as how my lowest framerate went from 5 at Low to 80 on Ultra in big battles! Lowest fps I saw was in Nexus Wars, and it was 40. That is amazing! THAT IS WITH A MAJOR BOTTLENECK!

Is there a way to learn better Macro/micro skills? I have been watching pro players and tips and it for some reason just doesn't register. Maybe I am just overthinking it. Do you use Grid or the regular hotkey setup?

Double post

I will PM you over the weekend as well by the way.. Busy with school throughout the week the working 40+ hours..
