Well today I ordered my 8800 gtx, my 680i mobo, my core 2 duo e6600, and Im genuinely petrified.
I switched from nVidia to Ati about 6 years ago and Ive grown attatched and accustomed to my setup/controlcenter. I dont particularly know where to begin starting over with nVidia all these years later. Its fairly daunting. Ive clung onto my system for dear life over the last 18 months and its served me well.
Im going to use the hard drive Im using now, would you suggest keeping it as is and when I install my new hardware botting with windows cd and installing like that? these new gtx's which drivers are working? I know there aint many about. Also I keep seeing these amazing smoke/water vids from the 8800, can I download these and run them in realtime? if so how? lol Im sorry, a lot of questions I know. Infact you know what I want to do the most, run the Cellfactor demo from a while back and see how it copes without the ageia card, that'll be fun.
I feel like a terribly terrified kid.....at christmas.
