I like playing games with full max out and of course the new ones!
I do play now at 1280x1024 but soon i will get a 22" TFT monitor which supports 1680x1050. I am very pleased with the X1900XTX which last 2 years and i would like the new card to be able to last that long too.
Also, i would like to ask if my PSU will be enough for these cards, it has only 2x6pin connectors, will i be able to run the GTX 280/HD4870x2 which needs 1x6 and 1x8? Where i can get a 6 to 8 pin???Or should i get a new one?
And one last thing, i sure my cpu will bottleneck the cards, should i get a new one? and if yes which one.
I am also thinking to get a HD4870 for now and when the new cards are out to upgrade my pc with getting new cpu(Bloomfield)/psu/vga/motherboard
