best value for money card has to be the nvidia 6800 gt....it's basically a detuned 6800 ultra and also is a single pci slot whereas 6800 ultra is twin. Also, you can overclock the GT to Ultra speeds, so theoretically, you save yourself a few hundred dollars at best. Power consumption is way better than the ultra that requires two power connectors to keeping it humming and 450W power supply

X800 pro is great although, I hear that it's merely a fill-in model for something more extroadinary. Either way you'd be guaranteed a couple years of awesome gaming!

looks like we are looking at around same price range...

what you think about x600 xt for around $400?

would the 9800 pro be better than that?

PC Powerplay gave it 96%, saying it was the best single-player FPS ever, and head and shoulders above anything else we've seen this year.

so, looking good!

can u make a call like that before its had a few years run?

Posted by G`Dave on Jul-30-2004 05:14:

It may score well on reviews... but what I really wanna know is how long its gonna last.

Will be be around forever (like half-life for example) or will they just be using the engine a good while into the future? Will everyone just drop it and forget about it when Half-Life 2 (eventually ) comes out?

Or will it be another hyped up supposedly great game.. that's forgotten in 2 months?

Posted by gumble on Jul-30-2004 05:18:

name one iD game thats been forgotten in 2 months

well, if u answer that, then u still remember it, it hasnt been forgotten.

Sig change time!

Also check out http://www.stalker-game.com/

This game has the best longevity for single player eassillyy for FPS games.

It's complete freedom, like an rpg FPS survival game...

Watch the videos! and read the FAQ.

Yeah, Stalker looks awesome indeed and it is also another game that I am eagerly looking forward to.

Posted by gumble on Jul-30-2004 07:51:

yer looks good, shame its not out till "spring 2005" tho..

Posted by one.tjc on Jul-30-2004 13:03:

the doom 3 hype is strikingly similar to that of daikitana.. [which was a shite game btw..]

Food For Thought

[edit: however doom 3 looks wikid, and has 96% score to proove it]

Posted by Hybrid Junkie on Jul-31-2004 06:03:

Pcpowerplay means shite.

Be sure to get the reloaded release and not the ind and noname releases.

Posted by Psygnosis on Aug-01-2004 12:24:

hey escee, is the Radeon 9600 XT 256mb any good? or should i just go for the RADEON X800 or the GeForce 6800 Ultra OC, theres a big price jump but would rather get a card that would last for the other stuff.

Posted by escee on Aug-01-2004 12:32:

if you can afford it get the best thats out there.
