Reading Assignment / List

[TheGreatGrapeApe]

OK, I will be off skiing for a few days, so I've left you guys with something to keep you entertained in my absence (yes I'm sure I'll be greatly missed, la-de-da ).

I just passed <A HREF="http://www.8dimensional.com/video-card-reviews/index.html" target="_new">THIS</A> along to Spitfire in a revamp of the MFR list, and thought I might as well share it with y'all as it's a great resource (I'd highly recommend bookmarking it).

8Dimensional has done a good job of collecting reviews for various cards. Some of them had experied and such and I had link to each individual card model I was interested in (R9600Pro, R9800PRO, R9600XT). However they changed the format to bring everything together, as a better resource, and to keep it more current.

Now it seems much more organized and there is a MASSIVE list of a Cards/MFRs with a whole PLETHORA of Reviews. If you can't find info on the card/brand you are looking for in here, perhaps that tells you something in and of itself.

Some of the links may be dead, but most of them will be active from what I've seen over time.

Enjoy!

Now time to go prep my skis/gear.

Enjoy the SNOW Not down here 83F.

 

[HardWareBoss]

Holy Crap. Where did you find all that info?

 

[TheGreatGrapeApe]

Well I didn't find it all, 8dimensional did. I've been visiting that place for a while. I've linked to them a few times, most recently in <A HREF="http://forumz.tomshardware.com/hardware/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=386795#386795" target="_new">THIS</A> thread.

It's definitely a nice job on their part, I'm simply the messenger.

And the snow was Good, and the mountain was GREAT. Higly recommend CatleMountain, good steps and nice glades. Definitely had a good time.

<b>Spitfire</b>, COOL, as always just glad to help.

Can you send me the list (with tags) in text format via e-mail? Seems that I have to do the format the whole of your PM to preserve formatting.

[TheGreatGrapeApe]

Yeah I was worried about that. That's why I said that you can format it as you see fit.

Anywhoo, I will send you the new formatted version (I thought saving it would make sense since the old one is somewhat different being R9800-centric) tonight when I get home, it's the exact copy of what I sent you but with all the tags,etc.

Ooops! :redface:

Funny I just read it over again and noticed a few spelling mistakes. Oh well it was done late at night, and if people don't get the gist of it they really aren't trying hard enough. If need be I can correct and resend, but seriously, it's GREAT for now.
As always, thanks for the efforts. Hopefully it will once more reduce more of the inane questions, but.... I won't hold my breath.

NOOOOOO don't do that. We don't want to lose your valuable input.

 

[Spitfire_x86]

I can correct spelling error/typo

Yeah, I know, it's been a standard of mine for some time.

I just liked how they organized everything into a more complete list. And thought others should see it.

Very good resource for anyone looking at a specific card.

<b>HB</b>, don't worry, I was just talking about a swap, but Spitfire can do it as well as anyone else.

<b>Spitfire</b>, no problemo, it's all yours man. BTW, the op-onion was on purpose.
