that icing on the cake.. of the 2900xtx is incredibly old news.. and xtx isnt even going to be made.. lol so i don't even know why that was thrown in there...
and anyone defending ati (me!), hey.. why would you care why we buy em... preference.. i love my ATi card(s) that i own and have owned. I'm happy with it.. therefore i'm not gonna complain... for the price, it was awesome.. and still is.. the 8800gt... is just to say.. more awesome for the price.. lol...
