WTB/WTT for a good graphics card

jordo_99 · 10-01-2007, 11:01 PM

well I've got an XFX 7600GT PCIe card that I've outgrown. It's still pretty good, but I'm going to be getting a 22" WS monitor soon and I want a graphics card to game on that with and still get decent FPS.

So...with that said, I will trade my 7600GT and cash for a 7900GT or better card (preferably a dx10 card or nVidia...ATi is good too though...I'm not a fanboy) or just buy one. PM me with offers.

I will also sell my 7600GT for ~$80-90 once I get my upgraded card if I still have it.

I have a brand new X1950Pro. I'll sell it for $140.

could you post a link with specs or let me know what they are?

I'm definitely interested right now.

yeah, looks like a nice card. Only thing that I'm remotely worried about it that it's a 256mb and not 512mb. I'm still interested but I'm going to wait a few days and see if I get any other offers or find anything better on e-bay.

RAM doesn't matter THAT much.

yeah, kinda...I'll probably need the extra 256mb for the high resolution. I'm going to be gaming at 1680x1050 and not the typical 1280x1024. If that were the case then I'd jump on that right away, but I want to make sure the card can do well at high rez...so the RAM is important, in this case anyways.

let me know if I've got things mixed up...I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure RAM differences show in higher resolution benchmarks.

--ALSO--

is this the card: (512mb)
Newegg.com - SAPPHIRE 100196L Radeon X1950PRO 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Retail

or this: (256mb)
Newegg.com - SAPPHIRE 100176L Radeon X1950PRO 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Retail

just wondering cuz the 256mb one would cost the same shipped...and no offence, but I'd rather get a graphics card from a retailer if cost isn't an option. Just in case I decided to return it or something...it'd save me a lot of hassle.
