ur welcome.

are you buying one?

id seriously say dont.
i bought 2 thinking they would be amazing, but unless your monitor is 26"+ then its a waste.

what about one?

Im gonna get a 19" widescreen 1440x900 screen.

I want to Have EVERYTHING MAXED OUT, including crysis (if i can :p)

will it be a good idea, or should i get a 9800GTX

dont get either. on a 19" it will be wasted. an 8800gt or an 8800gts 512 would do best.

Someone on newegg said with just one GX2 they maxed out crysis on 1680x1050.

I plan on getting one this summer, unless the new 9900 series offers something great for around the same price.

the 8800gtx scores more in crysis than te 9800gtx by an extra 5-10fps which is alot considering we aretalking 25-30fps average for the 8800gtx, because of the extra memory on the 8800gtx , the GX2 is the only single card tht will handle crysis maxxed out the 8800gtx and 9800gtx do not
