A Card decision

[evanscnce]

Should I get 2 7800 GT's for 200

Or

Should I get a different single card for around 200

That is the question.

umm

i think 2 7800 gts for 200 is a very good deal, i would certainly go with the 7800 gts, i know they are outdated but 2 of them for 200 is im guessing a bargain, and im almost sure they will perform just as good or even better than like an ati x1950xtx or an nvidia 7950 gt

That's a pretty good deal. 7800GTs are good cards. I doubt you could find a single card for $200 that'd top those.

hold off and get a 8600 ultra when they come out

Well, if I do that, I will have to use a PCI FX5200 until it comes out :/

well it's coming out pretty soon, you can hold on a little longer cant you, + there DX10 and i think a 8600 ultra (there isn't any benchmarks) could beat 7800GTs in sli

So a single one could? I have at least another week or 2 until my build is done anyways. So I can wait a little while. Plus the deal on the 7800GTs isn't going anywhere. Once a release date on the 8600 is released could someone please pm me?

here is a link to an ongoing discussing on the 8600 and its release date

They say it is going to be released Fed.-Mar.
