Re: 3DMark03 scores
On the cards. Just like the nvidia 6800 series. They were pretty expensive when they came out and when their sales peaked and ATI brought in R5xx gpus the prices shot down. It's the natural process of technology. I have some questions that need posting in another forum. Really no fun argument here :-/ I kinda don't feel like waiting for crossfire either. I may just upgrade to an X850XT with a nice board and keep that as long as I can. I'm pissed off at nvidia for the time being. I just found out on my Xtasy TI-4200 128MB/128bit they 'glued' the hsf on to the gpu. I finally pulled it off the other day and it wasn't even a metallic glue, it was freakin glue. I couldn't figure out why it kept heating up so fast and so hot. But hey, why spend money when you can save a few bucks at the end-users expense? stupid stupid stupid. Plus I like ATI's framerates better.
