Greetings all.
I game on a Dell 24" native resolution of 1920 x 1200.
I have an ATI x1900 crossfire edition, and I am looking to upgrade the graphics.
The problem I have is whether it is worth buying another X1900 xtx, thus giving me a total of 1gb of vram, or whether it would be better to buy a 512mb 8800 gt as a single card solution.
The money is not the problem, I would like to know which set-up would give me the most performance.
I relise that the extra ram would be useful at the native resolution of my monitor, but at the same time I would like to be able to see some directX 10 effects.
I dont really have enough cash for an 8800 ultra, but could possibly streach to a GTS 640mb.
So two questions, really:
1 - Would the crossfire performance come anywhere close to the GT/GTS.
2- Would a gigabyte of video ram serve me better than the directX 10 eye candy as I play in a high resolution.
Any help in this matter would be duly appreciated.
