Good card to buy? Some better alternative?

Doesn't need to be Nvidia, but I thought about some change since all I have ever used is Ati. Buying it today.

I hear a lot of people are recommending the Gigabyte Windforce version over the MSI or EVGA equivalents. And personally I would choose EVGA over MSI if those were the only two options, but in this case I'd take the Gigabyte one over all of them.

There's a rebate on the card. If you've already bought the card, make sure you get a copy of it.

On a side note, when it comes to gaming, I never buy expensive cards. This would be one of those cards I would have looked at due to the price.


Rendering on the other hand...

I already bought it. I could have gotten the Gigabyte and it was priced the same, but I already had this in my eyes and the difference can't be big. MSI doesn't offer any extras, like games and such, but don't really need them.

Ok. This thing is a beast.

Went straight to BF3 and max settings. No problem. Any game can be played with this and max settings.

Card is so quiet at first I thought it didn't turn on when I powered my computer.


I recommend.

Comradekil:  so anyway, i wonder how everyone's lives all progressed.. who's in jail? who's grandparents now.. ha life
Drunken Monkey:  and yes....i do miss 1942 aswell, i honestly think it is what drove me to get a M1 garand in real live, and is still my most used rifle
Drunken Monkey:  bots are getting silly
Comradekil:  Sup dudes
Messy Recipe:  the BAR-1918 always felt so good in that game
Messy Recipe:  I miss vanilla 1942 as much as Pirates... need to see if the Origin version (or even original) still has anyone playing sometime

Drunken Monkey:  merry Christmas you lot
[BB]Piccolo:  Anybody playing Sea of Thieves?
[BB]Piccolo:  I'm amazed I actually still knew my login. We Black Buccaneers certainly had a special relationship with you Cut Throats. Nothing like a fierce rivalry to make the battlefield exciting, eh? :)
