Does anyone know if BFG ships with any software?

I hope so every other card seems to be shipping with dark messiah of might and magic so I have held off buying it for that reason

I see, so If I specify that that this hardware can be bought cheaper elsewhere, with no mention of supplier or price, would I then be in breach of the above conditions?

If I say "shop around this can be found cheaper" would I then be in breach of the conditions.

Please advise

Use your common sense.

Ouch!

They are £80 more than X1900XTX was at launch, or £150 more than a XT was :eek:

Nvidia are taking the **** TBH.

Not to bad for me, the wife is away so at least I can watch a DVD with guns and aliens in on MY 43" plasma TV.

Giving these cards a miss, sticking with my 1900-XT but still v v v jealous lol

Voltage · 8 Nov 2006 at 15:21

i will wait a few weeks for the prices to come down.

KNiVES · 8 Nov 2006 at 15:22

Amiright in assuming that the price of every other graphics card before them will go down?

Raikiri · 8 Nov 2006 at 15:26

Hahahahahaha £605 for a single graphics card

That really is stupid, makes the PS3 look like good value.

Edit: And over £200 for a motherboard?!

This really is getting daft now... SLI - £1200 - Motherboard - £200 - CPU -£750 etc.

I doubt it, they don't have to compete on price, and every other card is already about £200 cheaper anyway.

I've got my mouse cursor rested on checkout - but there is this "that is a lot of money you are spending" put there.

LoadsaMoney · 8 Nov 2006 at 15:32

Only drivers that work currently are the shipping drivers (different to the ones you can get off the web with the same version number) which are the 96.89's. Today or very soon the 96.94's will be released which provide SLI support for the G80's. Word of warning, the shipping drivers are chronic, no end of trouble for me.
