Would it interfer with my Motherboard since its an Nvidia Board? Will I be able to run the ati card to its fullest with my motherboard type (Brand w/e)? Thanks for the help

It's not an nvidia board, its a board with an nvidia chipset, and it should work pretty well.

 

[Ku-sama]

thus far, its the best $200 videocard out there IMO

Right Chipset I would just think the company would be like that and make it so there cards run the best.

Also in the future (sorry for sounding like a nub) will I be able to do there crossfire or not?

 

[Ku-sama]

not without a crossfire board, i think

Hows this card. Its faster and cheaper then the ATI

Whats the big diff between 128 and 256 interface memory?

 

[Ku-sama]

alot, but if you compare the 7600GT its slightly better then a 6800GS, but the x1800GTO is better then them both, clock speed doesnt matter

 

[Fish]

clock speed doesn't matter waa? What should I be looking at when comparing these?

there....

the 7600GT has better clocks, but the x1800GTO has more rasters, better memory and core preformance... AND can be unlocked to 16 Pixle pipes from 12
