    AMD Launches ATI

    http://www.dailytech.com/AMD+Launche...rticle7260.htm

    That about covers the real leader in Video Cards !





    Challenge me, or correct me, but don't ask me to die quietly.

    That water cooled card looks nice!

    Problem is, the white CPC fittings they're using will come apart easily if you knock them - juice inside the PC = bad!

    I wonder if the GPU client will run on these for Folding@home?

    the answer to that one is here
    http://forum.folding-community.org/f...-0-asc-30.html
    channels are slow in this neck of the woods
    first one available here I'm getting one
    I'll trick it to make it Fold if I have to, like I did with X1600 thought it was X1900

    Ah, thanks for the info BW,

    Its a shame it still eats up so much interrupt CPU time also while using the GPU. I was hoping that they would do something about that, but it doesnt sound like they will soon. I might have to get one of these puppies also.

    More Power to the engines Scotty !!

    $400 US (about $450 CDN) for a HD2900XT. Not as expansive as I thought. The GeForce 8800GTX was about $800 CDN.

    I should pick this up when I have the money. Will go great w/ my games since I'm using an old X700 Pro.
