Best buy 84 dollars. About to install soon, and do some testing later, feedback later also.

:rockout:

I hope it suits your needs. Probably the best that PSU can support.

[shameless plug] Im selling a 9800GT cheaper although it would need a larger psu[/shamelss plug]

ASRockIQ · Sep 19, 2009

dude what brand is that PSU? btw, welcome to PCI-E

LittleLizard · Sep 19, 2009

why u didnt buy one, either, 512mb of gddr3 or a 4650?.

Still welcome to the pci era :toast:

Asylum · Sep 19, 2009

Welcome to the pci-e revolution.
Hope it does good for you.

i would rather have bought this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127425

the same but cheaper and msi is a good brand. dont know about galaxy

RadeonProVega · Sep 19, 2009

uM, is something wrong:

Shouldn't i have 800 for memory and 25GB??????????????????????????????????

newfellow · Sep 19, 2009

Well, it's dual rate but 400Mhz x 2 ain't 1600Mhz as on the newEgg pages. However, this is GDDR2 I can't exactly see how could this memory perform 1600Mhz total in any case. 28GB? dunno what this means, but other values seems just fine.

I suspect only error there is is on NewEgg pages for 1600Mhz memory speed on specs.

mlee49 · Sep 19, 2009

Congrats on the new card, welcome to the machine*

RadeonProVega · Sep 19, 2009

HOLY CRAP, I am playing L4D at 1280x1024 AFX16, AAX2, Very high to High to low settings and getting a solid 40-60 fps, it never drops below 40. Now i see what i have been missing out all these years. OH MAN THIS IS AMAZING.

DanishDevil · Sep 19, 2009

It pays off to upgrade your PC :roll:

You KNOW that's coming. I'll bite my lip. :laugh:

RadeonProVega · Sep 19, 2009

Well i just put l4d at everything on the hightest with AAX4 and AFX16, at 1280x1024 and it stays above 40 all the time.

Man, PCI really does suck compared to PCIe, but ok for light gaming. Anyways, crysis benchmarks later guys.
peace

Crysis WILL kill that card, I promise. But hey, as long as you are happy with the card. That's all that really matters.

+1, 4670 for $40 + 4 shipping on ebay :toast:

RadeonProVega · Sep 19, 2009

haha crysis runs like ease on my single core processor, i never seen any game move this fast in my life, it moves so smooth. No more pausing, no more stuttering, wow, just wow.

Crysis at these settings, i only tested it out , but i am sure i can run this on all high without trouble. Also i am using xp.

isnt that warhead?

RadeonProVega · Sep 19, 2009

No thats Crysis Demo.

More benchmarks, only difference now, i have shaders on high. Crysis is well playable now and i am enjoying it. This card is a beast and works really good with my system. See, nothing wrong with prebuilt computers, i just needed to move on to pcie.

This is almost like Monty Python - bizarre and funny. But there's that nasty feeling there's something horribly wrong with all this. It's like something leaked into our reality from some twisted alternate reality.
