    how do I measure power 'cleanliness'?

    An oscilliscope that has a peak/min hold or record feature could be left on in real time to show any spikes or large DC ripple

    Opamp with diode and capacitor

    To me, it looks as if the diode is simply for polarity protection @ DC. The Vcc is a reference voltage. That op-amp has a differential/comparator input.

    7800 owners how do you feel?

    I just gt my 7800gt co se for $239 after rebate. I would rather have the 7900gt, but at the price I got my 7800 for, I am not sad. Plus it overclocks really well. I am hoping that the 7800 prices drop down some so I can get a 2nd card for sli later on.
