Hmmm i will call you we will discuss this.....or better yet when you are in bangalore i will come along with you and do the shopping together. Dint you just pick 8800GT wats the point of going to ATI now if you so badly want two card SLI you will get amazing results with 8800 GT.

There's supposed to be a price cut no the Intel processors end of this month so wait a little before upgrading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port Keyboard 1 x Logitech 931669-0132 Mouse + suggestion for speakers needed + i have my doubts about the monitor also .. suggestions are welcome .. Just my opinions, Ditch the AMD processor. Get a Core2Duo E8400 + ABIT IP35-E. Get a Dell E228WFP or SP2208WFP over the Viewsonic. The said power supply is an elegant choice. And, if you just got an 8800GT and plan on getting a 22" widescreen, I wouldn't bother with the Dual HD 4850s. Come to think of it, getting a 750i SLI instead and running 8800GT SLI would be a better choice for you than getting 2 new Radeon's for CrossFire.

Grimmjow Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 What mouse is that?? If you can spend 3k+ then get a Razer Deathadder or Lachesis ( i am not too sure about prices of each) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The JACKAL Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 2 4850s in CF will destroy a 8800GT SLI setup. My friend had SLI'ed two 8800 GTSs (640mb) and Crysis still stuttred while running in Dx10 and Anti aliasing 16x. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He shouldnt be running Crysis with AA in the first place, let alone 16x AA. The Cryengine 2 is a dog when it comes to smoothening the lines.

AtheK Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 2 4850s in CF will destroy a 8800GT SLI setup. That is a bold statement i mean beat maybe yes...DESTROY???? Except one game CF is a tinge less then 8800 GT SLI. http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3341&p=20 8800 GT is retailing for 145$ now so SLI is 290 $ compared to 400$ so sorry Nvidia Wins and owns PS: Just ordered another EVGA 8800 GT SC card from Newegg.... 125$(20$ mail in rebate) so technically 5k...WIN WIN WIN.

AtheK Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 (edited) but beating costly by 110$ is ownage...i back my statements with facts....so please And ya my main point of linking to the article was the fact that 4850 CF will destroy 8800 GT SLI is not correct they are very very close except one game where 4850 has scaled really well but then practically anything above 60 FPS is anyway not catchable by naked eye Edited July 16, 2008 by AtheK(Crime Master GO-GO) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
