I'd have to say that with DX10 being so new, and I do believe Microsoft recently stated that development of DX10 is only just now beginning because there has been no DX10 hardware to develop on, I personally would either wait until DX10's inevitable issues have been ironed out and buy a stopgap card for now, or forego DX10 for the foreseeable future and buy a couple of SLI cards (but only because I'm more of a fan of nvidia than ATI).

My vote goes for the SLI 7900GT x 2

I'd buy the new 12 pack of  mega-stella dx myself, and a mic to go with it.  Then I'd blast it with a whack 'o brandython.

Joker knows what I mean, well if, he can remember that is.

You have as much chance of catching me drinking Stella as you have of recieving correct pc advice off me.  I dont do either very well.

Sorry for the derailment.

I bought a flux capacitor from crazy old Emmett Brown and stuck that in my PC.

It blew it up.

Still, the light show was pretty while it lasted...

Your nuts. The 8800 still out performs 2 7900GTs in any benchmarks I've seen. The only thing faster are 2 ATI 1950XTs in Crossfire, and I hate saying that because I hate ATI cards.

Why would you buy something thats going to be totaly obsolete within 2 months. That would be like me going and buying an AMD 939 machine.

The 8800 is a DX10 card, in 2 months when Vista and DX10 are released it will rape the shit outta the DX9 cards. Your just going to waste your money on a Dx9 card. Get a 8800 then SLI it if needs be in the future.

As for the GX2, if you really want to go the DX9 route get 2x 7900GTXs, they will be faster then a single GX2.

Of course everyone is gunna pick the 8800, it's the best card out right now.

But if you didn't have alot of money, get like a 7900GT or GTX.

Mr Mullett - You wanna come and join us when you can.  Ask Joker to give his demonstration on how to stay in a chopper when everyone else has bailed.

It must be the light show.

That is like $400 more expensive an option for something that will only be 10-20% faster........

Though I agree with this guy, 8800 all 'teh' way.

I think this Friday needs to be teamspeak assisted by the sounds of it. I'll distribute the details to anyone who's gonna be there.

OK ...but with the release of the 8800's the "Old Cards" are bound to come down in price making them a more viable option........thoughts??

When I get pissed and play BF2 I always get distracted easily.

I always think I can hear the Ice Cream van outside and go running out onto the street wearing nothing but my dressing gown and a stiffy. Then I realise it's 3am and the ringing I heard was some n00blet team flashing.

I tend to do a lot of my TKing under the influence of alcohol. If it moves, shoot it. If it gets back up, shoot it again. If he's on my team, aplogise.

Then shoot him again.
