    My mum has ordered the card I had my eyes on for a while as a supercharged gfx upgrade for my PC (well, supercharged compared to my 8MB i740) she's ordered me the Asus V7700TI Deluxe 64MB GFX Card. She just revealed I can't have it until CHRISTMAS damn it!!! I NEEEEED the TV Out and TV In for some video editing projects I have in mind (I use Flash MX and Premiere for video stuff :eyebrow: Flash MX is surprisingly powerful)

    Oh well. Good things come to those who wait I guess..

    So what? This ain't no competition in my eyes :p

    As long as I can play games and video edit, I'm quite happy. I'm not an intensive games player. I find my 500 very speedy for what I do, except for compressing videos (a 2m20s video took 4mins to encode/compress - Ain't that bad I guess))

    I will eventually finish building my other machine, I'll have a 1733 MHz processor in it, 512MB RAM and that'll last me AGES.

    Like I said, As long as it runs Q3A and UT at 20fps+, I'm really not bothered.

    nice thought rich...

    OR!

    run at her jump on her, get her in a headlock and start punching her in the face, or some other violent way, run around chasing her with a solder iron or a drill.

    she may give you ur card, or smash your face in and send you to bed...

    ummmmm, am i feeling ok today?

    If she knows as much as my parents do/did about computers... here's what you do.... Take your existing card out and swap it in the box with the new one and install the new one in the system :D. Then, come Christmas time, talk about how fast an easy it was to install the "new" card...
