Negative Sun Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share Posted October 30, 2007 Hey I've got the advice, you've got the money, let's meet in the middle Nah J/K, a good tip as well is to go look for reviews on the piece of hardware you're about to purchase, and if you buy online, see what other customers have had to say if the site has that kind of feedback system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Yes, it would best to hold off on making any video card upgrade purchases for at least a month until both camps launch their new linups. Indications are such that the new midrange cards will have the performance of the old top-of-the-line models for less than half the price. Alongside the 8800GT there will apparently be a new G92 version of the 8800GTS featuring all 128 SPs enabled like the present 8800GTX, along with higher clockspeeds. The reason for this huge hike in performance? You guessed it: Crysis, the game that will bring even the best present-day hardware to its knees. Kind of makes me wonder what the new top-line models will feature. My guess is that they will have two GPUs like the older 7950GX2. And yes, once again, you early-adopters have been royally screwed. But hey: there's always fleaBay, so sell those cards now while you can still get most of your initial investment out of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Monance Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 I got the Demo and played the game for about 5 minutes. The graphics are impressive, and it is running smoothly on my PC with all graphic settings on "high", "very high" is disabled, that probably for Vista DX10. Don't think I will buy the game though, so far the only FPS that could fascinate me was Half-life². Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
