Joe88 · 14-November-06, 07:52 PM

I was wondering when the next gen ATI cards will be out on the market ?
since the release of the 8800GTX, the power of that card ...

I was planning on getting 2x x1950xtx at x-mas ...

One thing about these X1950XTX cards, GDDR4, its so ahead of its time, that there arent even drivers to OC them memory as of right now. Soo i have a feeling there not that far behind in the ranks for updatable cards, i would for out 300$ more for a 8800 anyhow, no matter what the score.

You just can't beat a card price the same as the 7900GT, and with performance near the 7950

plusyou can get two and crossfire them

thanx

I dont fell like shelling out $650-700 for it
They no longer even sell the x1900xtx
Ill be getting a x1950xtx then, eventually I will add a crossfire edition of the card and crossfire it =]

and im not getting nVidia, as much as that 8800GTX pwnz ...
im getting a ASUS P5W-DH
