Hiya Guys

Im Running 2x 8800gt 512mb each

so could anyone recommend me a card with either 2gb or 1gb of ram . and better than 2 x 8800gt and is very cheap

must be pci-express 2.0

cheers

Nvidia or ATI


im running a Core 2 Quad @ 3.2ghz
4GB DDR 2 800mhz ram
2 x 500GB HDD's
2x 8800GTS
XFX Motherboard
650Watt PSU
Windows XP Pro 64bit

 

Budget?

 

Really need to know budget and resolution. And forget about 2GB VRAM cards, waste of money.

 

around 200 and 1680 x 1050

was lookin at a 5870 or a 6870 ATI Card

 

I'd go for a 6870 myself. Great card and good price.

 

6870 will be fine for that resolution, sand there at a good price point to, or too, not sure which

 

if you are talking USD, then gtx 460 or 6870 (i think they are that cheap)

 

I just got a 6870 for my new build and its a great card for the money, runs cool and has a fairly decent power consumption and the performance is likewise. I say look at reviews for both 6850, 6870 and the 460.

 

I would get a GTX460, and if you want to continue SLI, get two GTX460s.
