bloodking Posted April 11, 2004 Posted April 11, 2004 it only works with the 5900 and 5900SE so you won't be able to do it with your 5600 and also one thing i recommend...don't try a vid card flash if you haven't read alot on it how it works and what the risks are...hell..even i'm scared of doing it...lol that's why i ordered a real 5950 ultra GT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nerm Posted April 11, 2004 Posted April 11, 2004 I have always liked Nvidia, but both Nvidia and ATI make good cards. Right now ATI seems to have the upper hand, but Nvidia will come out with something new then Nvidia will have the upper hand again. Just the way the competetive market works.

Ghost2520 Posted April 11, 2004 Posted April 11, 2004 Well seeing the latest NV40 benchmarks they would come back, but NVidia is saying that you should have atleast a 480 watt powersupply to run the graphics card! Thats outrageous that it should require that much power! (2 molex connectors and they can't be on the same wire) So just because of that I'm going to have to wait and see how the two compare around Christmas time.

Paranoid Posted April 16, 2004 Posted April 16, 2004 ATI fans, read and weep. B) Clicky Not Tom's Hardware again... ATi hasn't released their card yet, and you can't really compare R360 to NV40. The only fair comparison would be NV40 against R420 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ballz2TheWallz Posted April 16, 2004 Posted April 16, 2004 cmon let us enjoy our fav comapanys victory for a little while, technicly you couldnt campare the 5900ultra to a 9800pro but the pro still won Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paranoid Posted April 16, 2004 Posted April 16, 2004 NV40 has 16 pipelines. You can't compare it to a card with 8 pipelines (R360) When the 16 pipeline R420 comes out (X800XT), then you can compare it to NV40 and see which is better. The 6800 Ultra isn't even available yet. Compare them once they are both available to be purchased, which should be by early to mid May. Comparing the 6800 Ultra to the 9800 XT is like comparing an Athlon 64 to a Pentium 3.
