    Does it matter if I went and bought the cheapest one?

    Theres a club 3D on komplett for €550 but the point of view which I would rather cause I feel the brand is more well known for €627

    Its a stupid reason I know but I want to be sure cause if there going be exact same ill go for cheaper one!

    Thanks :)

    Hey man Club 3D are quite well know.

    lol only came back to this now... yea I was going to buy one but there out of stock of them on komplett so its either going to be a point of view one or an XFX on..

    I might go XFX :)

    If you go xfx and it is not one of the pre-overclocked cards then keep in mind you may not get very good everclocks from it seeing as they keep the good components for the preoverclocked cards. :)

    IF your confident enough with the system u should go get an 8800GTX off ebay - they usually go for around 350-450 Euro for decent models


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,728 ✭✭✭dazftw


    I already got it lol 627 I think... weeks wages... :D worth it...? I don't know yet haha

    "worth it is quite a relative term in this case - u buy every major graphics heavy game for the next year tho and you will get good value out of a 600 yoyo GTX :D a real shame wud be to buy it and not use it a lot :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,728 ✭✭✭dazftw


    Yea im going use it... Ive about 7 new games sitting on my desk at home waiting to be laughed at by the GTX lol

    The main reason im spending so much on the pc.. for gaming, nearly €2500 now...

    :D

    Do you not even have a pci old graphics card to test it out? That'd drive me insane...

    also, looks like there'll be no 8800 at all for havok as have to fork out for several different holidays coming up. I swapped my x1950pro for a 7900gs + 60 so that'll have to do for the next few months I think...


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,728 ✭✭✭dazftw


    No I dont its annoying.. Ive went from agp to pci-e lol

    It would be handy to have an old crap on so I can update everything!
