I've been eyeing them and I've decided to get make it an eventuality to have one.
I am kind of a videocard whore, but it is cheaper and indeed more useful than being a cpu whore, haha. (More useful in that they are easier to share with friends and can be used multifunctionally.)
Well thats good to hear. Just wonder why they made a mockup instead of the real thing. My guess would be they want the card to be shorter, so they just cut it off as a temperary fix. Either that or they ran out of high end heatsinkes and had to make the chip fit on a mid range one. :lol:Quote:

Since I'm nVidia fan, I think my next Video Card will be one of the GTX3xx ones, I guess I'll be able to afford my next upgrade only in a year or two...so there might be even better cards than the 300 till then...
Tch, I'm not upgrading until there's a game that can actually stress my current card. Maybe if a DX11 game comes out that I REALLY want to play, I'll consider getting a 57** series card... =\
I'm currently happy with what I have now in the way of video cards. I don't play any games which require anything more than onboard video, however I do fold. If Stanford ever gets it worked out where ATI is equal or better than Nvidia at folding, then I may think about changing.
If GT 300 is all it's advertised to be, I doubt that's going to happen soon...
I'm tempted by the hd5850, but it's hard to justify upgrading from a hd4870 right now. I'll wait for the prices to come down and for cards with third party cooling before i upgrade again. Waiting for the GT300 probably won't hurt either, it can only mean even lower priced ATI cards, i might even go nvidia again if the price is right.
Waiting for the prices to go down :exactly:Anyways I think I will buy a 5770 very soon for a new build :whistler:
I'd love one but can't really justify purchasing one yet. Being I have Windows 7 it would be nice to have DirectX 11 ready to use but I don't hardly play many games and don't even purchase the very latest ones often. My 4830 OC will have to suffice for now.
I`ll skip this one ,only if I have a luck of wining one but that is a miserable chance, I`ll wait for 6xxx ati`s gpu,
I have 4850x2,and temporarily satisfied .
Glad that ati made this very good 5xxx gpu`s.
I am having my eyes on 5770 but maybe after 3 months or after "first" price cuts
I'm hoping for the 5850. I've never seen so much excitement on the net over a computer component, as they are about the 5xxx series cards...:yes:
I bought a 5750.
