Not bad, it should be here by Monday at the latest.

In the meantime I put my old 620 card back in. I figure I'll test the new power supply on the old card first and then install the new card again. But for the life of me I can't find a power input on the old 620 card. It's like it doesn't even connect to the power supply. I'm running it right now without it connected. I wonder if it can draw its power from the motherboard or something lol

heya I know im coming into the conversation late but I had same issue bout month ago and it was indeed the vid card on mine, but he is right that type of shutdown is due to the motherboard overheating it is a protective measure that is built in, my problem was the fan died on my old radeon card. I know this because I opened it and watched it while I started my comp and ran a program or two you could see it trying to but wouldn't turn. I went back to my shitty onboard card and it worked like a charm so I simply replaced. i have the gfx 660 myself and i haven't had any probs with the new drivers. if you do play god and open it while its active just be careful not to get any type of static electricity going before you handle stuff ( even if its not runnin of course) because you can fry your mother board that way and just see if your fan is activating on your card. and like someone else said try your old card again even if its on board it worked for me ^^ i hope you get it going again

I just got my new power supply in and my new graphics card in. All 5 fans running smoothly. In fact this fan is soooo quiet compared to my last one. You could hear my previous power supply's fan from outside it was so loud and annoying. I'll go ahead and try Skyrim.

no idea what this means, but it sounds important:

Square Enix wrote:
Regarding the recently announced “GeForce 320.49 Driver” graphic driver from NVIDIA®, we have confirmed that FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn will show up as a SLI-compatible game (NVIDIA Control Panel > 3D Settings > Manage 3D Settings). However, please note that we have not yet made the necessary adjustments on the program side to make the game compatible with SLI. Please be patient as we plan to have this ready by the official launch.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.

Basically, it means that SLI support (using two graphics cards) isn't in the game yet, even though the drivers allow you to turn it on. Nothing to worry about.
