You've kind of contradicted yourself here. 9800Pro was the king of the hill.

no contradiction, i was simply saying thats how long its been since i owned my first ati card. I forgot to mention that price was a factor then.

Been keeping out the loop as of late just want to know if the GTX 260 is supposed to match the GX2 or beat it?

So many news articles etc. I don't know where to start.

best wait for benchmarks then, i suppose they are only just around the corner.

The GTX 260 will be the better card out of it and the GX2, as it doesn't rely on SLi.

I do think i am looking at either a 4870 or 260

Yeh, but even if it did, would you want to pay obscene amounts of money for it?

Not interested in GTX 260 much. 4870 though, very much.

LoadsaMoney · 30 May 2008 at 22:26

The GTX 280's price will drop after one single day.

One day? How can you say that?

shaffaaf27 · 30 May 2008 at 22:28

Ok, im going to hold you to your word on this one

marc2003 · 30 May 2008 at 22:33

4850 for me, maybe 4870 depending on price. i still can't face nvidia drivers.

You think that's bad, try living with an SiS DirectX 7 no TnL thing. Truly and utterly crap, i was actually missing my Geforce FX 5600.
