How much of a boost in performance...

How much boost in performance would I get if i replaced my gfx card (original gForce 3) with a 9700P/9800p ???

HUUUUUUUUUUUUGE performance boost in games:thumb:

good enough for me :-D now just need to finish my case and get a new card :-D now if someone can only answer my question about cooling

[rugbydude]

Which question was this:confused:

[t00lb0x]

about peltier its in the cooling section its just imma switch to water cooling + peltier combo but i need some help deciding on which stuff (blocks, which peltier, which coldplate) and make sure it all works and how to combat condensation...if i go through with it i'll just take a bunch of photos and put it up in user reviews/how-tos and mayb (ok never will it happen) T.T. can use it

Toolbox; Nvidia will be launching its new Geforce FX5900 Ultra at E3 in nine days, I would wait until then before deciding which card to buy.

Early 5900U specs are, 0.13 chipset, 425/850MHz core/memory, 256bit memory controller, 256mb 2.2ns DDR memory, 28GB/sec real bandwidth, standard cooling, $499.00 USD.

The card should look something like this.

soo much money:snip:

There's the 5900, similar spec to the 5900U, except it has 128mb of memory, it will cost 399.00 USD, which is the same price as the Radeon 9800 Pro.

I really hope the 5900 is good enough to make up for that piece of crap 5800 that Nvidia released Now if only it didnt cost so damn much lol

SWEET ! That's what I'll be doing as soon as I've moved into my nice new house ! Going from my current 7500 to an AIW 9700 Pro. Can't wait...Literally !

weta thx i kinda have no cap on how much i can spend (my dad owes me it) but it has to outperform the 9800P NOT ONLY in sheer speed but with AF/AA turned on (where 9800P stomps the 5600U)

Toolbox, from what I've heard its not that much faster than a 9800 Pro until you turn all the effects on, then it's reputedly in a class of its own.

Radeon 9800 Pro is the highest performancing card at the moment without a doubt.

Will just have to wait and see how the NV35 turns out, it better be good, need competition to drive down prices
:barf:
