6 months back i sold my 9800 gt to buy a fermi...now nvidia is planning to release fermi....but my budget is 350 $ max...don't have extra cash....i ve read that mainstream fermi will come this summer..
Now I am planning to buy 5850.I am not an overclocker...and not interested in multi monitor setup's too
but i have some doubts about this card and drivers...
1)can i get good fps in windows xp ?found some fps issues in xp user .I am planning to use win xp 32 and win 7 32 bit (games I play-motogp08/crysis/shift/dirt2)
2)read about problems in watching youtube videos and HD videos...is it solved now?
3)I am planning to buy sapphire 5850 .....i found some users reporting GSOD issues....is this a hardware or a software issue? (heard a news that ATI is planning to release 6 series GPU's soon..)
4)any BSOD 's due to this card? I ll use my pc almost 16 hours a day
5)after getting this card can i use cd drivers or I have to choose better drivers from net ? & which version of driver ?
6)I am using creative platinum x- fi sound card...is there any audio problem due to this gfx card ?(found some user reported problem in using creative sound cards...)
7)Is it a good idea to wait for mainstream fermi cards?
