Exactly! Finally someone said that. lol I ended up getting the Radeon 3870x2 1GB http://www.insidehw.com/Reviews/Graphics-cards/ATI-Radeon-HD-3870X2-1-GB.html For $340CAD, so basicly I exchanged the GT 1GB ($300), paid the $40 difference and got that one. Is that good? lol I hope so. It benches higher than 2 GTX's SLi'd so it had better be a good pickup. Also, did I overpay?
The stock CPU speed of mine is actually 900MHz, different than the one in the link.
, something like that requires a bit more ram than 512MB
yep, because I just remembered you had something like a 42 or 52 inch monitor
But yeah, I have a 42" 1920 x 1080.
Yeah, you don't have a 1GB frame buffer...it's still only 512MB, but it should still give you great results. Even though both 512MB frame buffers are filled w/ almost identical data i guess it's just too hard (or too costly) for them to figure out how to get the multiple cores to share the same memory pool.
1920x1080 is the same at 26", and 72"
I have a 95" screen at 1280x720, but it still uses less memory than your 'little' 42"er.
Yes car games are really cool on the Projectors aren't they.
Very cool Jason! Pink makes it look even better
@Saihossoku: I second the 3870X2 over the 8800GT. Especially for high resolution, since that is where the 3870 shines.
You got a great deal on that card!!! I'd buy it in an instant at that price (where did you get it??).I'm glad I grabbed it then. I'll be playing on minimum 1920x1080. As for the deal, Toronto is a great place to live and a great place for deals....especially when you know the owner.
