...heh... After feeling the awesomeness of the 8800GTS 320MB and the pure value and power it packs I want it! Should I join the darkside? Nvidia? I seriously feel its geat... the 8800GTS, the card is so solid, the cooler is so quiet and also very nice. The nice green PCB will suit my motherboard and my performance will be literally doubled. I'll only be using one PCI-E 16x so i dont need to reroute all the stuff. The PCB is the same size as my X1950PRO as well...
I had one in my PC for one hour... awesome!
65*C with crappy thermal paste is good! With AS5 + IHS ill get like 60*C. It doenst run as hot as most of you guys say... the 8800GTS 320MB is godlike!!!
So yeah very soon ill be selling my X1950PRO, for around $180 to $170... (USD).... its so nice... green PCB... DX10... small PCB... nice cooler....
Anyways back to ATI... HD2900Xt would have been on my buy list if it was:
-Cheaper than it is
-Without the odd performance drops
-2 PCI-E power plugs...
