sunxrv-1200, any good?

[Jomi]

I gave up games a few months after starting uni (realised I wasted far too much time), but now I've finished I'm going to buy a new card. Can anyone rate this?

... That's a card for a Sun Microsystem's machine O.O;;; Why, migth I ask, are you even looking at this card? Did you see the price on Sun's site? $2,995.00!

I've been looking at loads of different stuff tonight, this one caught my eye though. Is this chip not too good for what I want to use it for? (didn't notice the price, it's out of my range).

Well what are you doing with the comp?

dont get that card. get a 7800 gt or gtx those will be good for gaming.

if you're playing games, that card won't do much for you... on top of that, the card is basically proprietary to sun systems and work stations. nice card though.
