| 526417 | 2007-04-10 05:43:00 | Why has this thread stopped being a sticky? Even I - with no plans to build & practically no comprehension of the video card stuff - find it interesting to dive into occasionally. I realise the forum shouldn't have too many stickies, but as the thread about bounced PF1 emails relates to a problem now solved, couldn't that be allowed to die instead? |

| 526418 | 2007-04-10 10:00:00 | I agree, Escpecially as we are still going to get a constant stream of people wanting to know what the pick of current hardware is, I figured they could unsticky it when we create the next one, Lets Build a PC July 2007 | Metla (12) | ||

| 526421 | 2007-04-13 06:12:00 | So, the new LCD purchase (HP L2045w Wide Screen) done, now to sell the 17" LCD I currently have towards a new Video Card... | SolMiester (139) | ||
| 526422 | 2007-04-13 06:41:00 | So, the new LCD purchase (HP L2045w Wide Screen) done, now to sell the 17" LCD I currently have towards a new Video Card... Might be time to sell a body part as well SolMiester ;) There are only two viable AGP options a 7600GS or X1950PRO and neither is particularly cost effective unless you intend to keep your system for a very long time. |

| 526423 | 2007-04-13 08:17:00 | I was thinking the X1950pro indeed @ around $390, hoping the monitoe sale will cover half! | SolMiester (139) | ||
| 526424 | 2007-04-16 08:04:00 | With all this talk of GPUs, why is no one into the 8800 GTS? Am I missing something here? | west (11903) | ||
| 526425 | 2007-04-16 10:49:00 | Umm its not available in AGP? SolMiester's motherboard uses the nForce3 chipset ;) I'm holding out for the 8900GS and 8900GT, both look to offer a nice mid-point in the trade off between price and performance. I have seen them mention as the 8800GS and 8800GT either way they still seem rather nice! |

| 526426 | 2007-04-16 11:25:00 | The 8800 is far too expensive. This thread is all about getting things done to a good enough standard without going over the top & buying the best of everything. The *600 in each series (ATI and Nvidia) tends to be the card that is closest to that description |
