Gryph Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Not to mention cheap and uses less power. But nVidia is slowly winning me back, the only thing thats holding me back is price tag.Yeah, me too. That's why I'm waiting on the next generation or maybe even 2 generations down the line before I upgrade my video card. nVidia just needs to get some drivers out that lets people play HL2 with DX9 and high frame rates.

Wizard Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 I agree. That's what they get for teaming up with ATi. Although DX9 is sexy, I still like teh Open GL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_cinder Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 You're also forgetting the newest cards are available in PCI-Express flavours. There is ZERO point in grabbing an AGP variant of the newer cards, you should look at upgrading your motherboard to one that supports PCI-E if you're gonna blow the money on the latest and greatest video card. The difference between AGP 8x and PCI-E 16 is just huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizard Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Getting PCI-E now is useless, getting it in 3 years is worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
