i never got why one would spend SO much money on one card. you can run 2 $100 cards SLI or Crossfire-X and have more throughput then one monster card. or even better the new 3 and 4 card SLI or Cross.

Thats just my idea anyway.

i want the new architecture of the AM3+/990FX chipset and want to utilize all that it has to offer. So running a Phenom or Older CPU wont be for me. i use my computer more for video/audio editing type of shit and what i have no takes SOOOOO long to render an AVI/MP4 to DVD format. so thats more my end goal.

Cause SLI or crossfire is a pain. Ive looked into it trust me. ill spend alot on my video card and use it for the next 5 years like i did with my 8800gt lol plus not needing a special mobo with enough slots saves costs.

But i do understand why you want to have newer shit, for me, i get the performance i want in unorthodox ways for gaming lol

I thought he was talking about drugs.

LOL^ Yeah I wish I got a graphic card with hdmi out I have 2 DVI outs which work but have to get special cables

Are you sure were not, I can get you same crazy good rammmm mannn...

Another good point, hdmi out is awesome, not a big difference between "lcd computer monitors" and "lcd tvs" anymore.

yeah problem with that is its WAY cheaper to get a long VGA cord to run to my TV then a $100 35 ft. HDMI cord. But the clarity will do wonders!!!! my video card died maybe 2 years ago and the only thing that was available for off the shelf AGP 8x(yeah...) was this shitty Nvidia 6200 gt! Trash of a card even after the overclocking from BFG. and honestly after the FX series of cards. price for price ive been happier with ATI/AMD over Nvidia Lately.

I ran a couple ati cards a while ago, perhaps they are better now? and omg a 6200gt lolol and agp, i havnt seen that in a long time lol

yeah man! ive had this thing built sence 04!!! still runs strong. wich is why ive never cared to upgrade. but now that im getting into higher cpu demanding shit. time for a redo. and my video card is starting to act up it seems. while im running dual display(T.V. and Monitor) the performance goes to SHIT now. So UPGRADE TIME!!!

Jezz, my rig is from like 08ish, your def in need of an upgrade more then me lol. My rig is just shy of the performance i need, which is a kick in the nuts cause the bios on intels suck and i cant change the clock speed easily.

same here and tech can be car
