caffeinejunkie Posted January 23, 2004 Posted January 23, 2004 I don't know about one but for 2 i would say the radeon but shop around for maybe a saphire,asus, or generic radeon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FanATIc205 Posted January 23, 2004 Posted January 23, 2004 (edited) the radeon most defenitly. youll be real happy when games like hl2 and d3 come out. anyway you slice it no driver update is gonna fix the poor pixel shader 2.0 performance on the nvidia cards that is key to future dx 9 games. avoid the se like the plague thou i did see today a succseful 9800se to 9800 soft mod but theres always the chance the softmod will show heavy artifacts with the mod Edited January 23, 2004 by FanATIc205 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtreme21 Posted January 24, 2004 Posted January 24, 2004 Get the FX5900 and flash it like me, it runs stable after flash at 515/1005 and it runs better then a 5950 Ultra, but its really your personal preference... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eliu170 Posted January 24, 2004 Posted January 24, 2004 (edited) 5900 owners: The box of a fx5900 i saw states the following words in a corner: "Crank It All UP!" as for what i understand their talking about high graphics/aa/an lets say 4x AA and 8xAN .Is the performance good? and also if i buy the 5900 im planning on doing the MOD. Sound Fuqin intresting.(5900ultra is freakin great) Edited January 24, 2004 by eliu170 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
