Currently I am running with the setup as shown below in my profile. My current setup is not slow (5200 points in 3dMark05) but in Everquest 2 it running badly.This appears be a wide spread problem with all the 6800 series of cards.
Option 1
Keeping my current setup and then upgrading when cheaper nforce4 Ultra boards with SLI become more readily available. I would have to purchase 1 or 2 new PCIE graphics cards - not sure how much I would get for my current AGP 6800 Ultra at a later date.
Option 2
Upgrading to a new Asus A8V(AGP) or Nforce 3 motherboard and a new 3200 Winchester CPU and keeping my 6800 Ultra (AGP). This setup could last the next 18 months max, with perhaps a CPU upgrade in between.
Option 3
Sell my 6800 Ultra now and replace it with a new Radeon X800XT PCI-E (not a PE as I would have to pay to much in) or a new 6800 GT PCI-E. A new 3200 Winchester CPU and a new Nforce 4 (or Ultra) PCI-E motherboard.
Any good practical advice would be appreciated - I don't mind spending the cash but I do mind throwing it away.
