Hello,
I have waited long enought for the launch of 2900 and now that we've finally seen some decent benchmarks I've decided to swap my line of ATI cards for Nvidia.
3 weeks ago I wouldn't be asking this questions but the prices for GTS 320 and 640 MBs have fallen while price for GTX remains the same. Prices for GTS have fallen to the point where 2 X GTS 320MB are cheaper/same then a single GTX and outpreform it under the res of 1280X1024 (only one I care about) by a healthy margin. I don't have the money to get a GTX now, so I will have to get my whole setup in 2 month if I go for it, I can get a rig with 1 GTS (saved enought to get 2900 but that is out the window ) in a week and get another one in 2 month. I've never ran a SLI/Crossfire setup and wondering if it has some hidden difficulties/bugs.
My current rig:
P4-C 3.0 @ 3.4Ghz
ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe
1024 MB OCZ PC-4000 Gold
Radeon X850 XT 256 MB
1 X 300 GB
2 X 160 GB Maxtor HD's
Thermaltake Damier V5000D (all wires neat)
Tacens Valeo 480 PSU
BenQ FP937S+ LCD
Getting:
C2D 2.4 @ hoping for 3.2 Ghz
ASUS P5N32-E SLI+
2 GB DDR2-800 OCZ XTC Titanium
GPU still under the ?...
2 X Barracuda 7200.10 (500 GB)
Thermaltake Damier V5000D (all wires neat)
Thermaltake Thoughtpower 750W CM
BenQ FP937S+ LCD
I really need some advice on this :?:
