At the end of this month, I would have had my x1900xt for 3 years. Even though the card is still going strong, I'll bite the bullet to buy one of these DX11 cards near new, especially as I finally have a job :]

ATi still have some scope left for beefing up their super-scalar architecture.
nVidia are in need of one though as their GPUs are becoming so big and expsensive that it's making manufacture of their cards too expensive.
archers schnapps(peach) is so disgusting
came back from pub just found that in house. anyway back to topic hopefully will manage pick up 5870/ 5890 if there's such thing on christmas if they fast enough

I currently own a watercooled 8800GTX, it's got to be the best card I have ever owned! However the rest of the components in my rig are shot to pieces so I will be re-building in December. Depending on what nvidia do within the next couple of months I will most likely be getting a 5870X2 (along side a decent i7 system).
I think even ATI fanboys would agree that the 8800GTX was a stonking graphics card, and looking back on my purchase I am sure I made the right decision at the time of purchase. Do you think that if I bought a 5870X2 I would feel the same in 3 years time from now?
