Wow. I was considering UPgrading to a system like yours, but It'd cost too much for the performance benefits.

Has anyone SPMarked your phone yet?

I have now ordered the card! A had to phone them to ask why I couldn't ordered it from the web... He said it was strange since they obviously had them in stock and took the order for it over the phone

I'm selling it for 1500SEK (120£). I'm getting a Leadtek GeForce 6800GT 256MB (which it says earlier in this topic ). Awesome card I hope!
But the cables...

@ The guy above
What do you run them on, 800*600? . Try far-cry, doom 3 or Half-life 2. Good luck. Have to agree with your choice of brands tho. ATI all the way.

Just tried HL 2 and no lag at all (although i didnt try to set the highest graphic settings). Im trying doom 3 next week to see how it works.

Wow! I'm impressed! Half-Life 2 ran smoothly on a DX 8 card! Well, actually, that makes sense, but you'd be missing out on all the cool Hardware-supported gizmos and effects the DX 9 cards have. Oh well, at least it looks pretty.

To be honest I'm still jealous, I don't have Half-Life 2 yet (legally) and the other version, well, lets just say it's old , and that Alex G got it for me.

Yeah, Half Life 2 has been known not to require the "monster" computers that Doom 3 did. But if you want to make the most of the game, you'd have to have more than a dirX 8 card ;-)
