    I don't know what is wrong with my card then if yours worked so well. I had it taken back and looked at, they said there was no problems. I thought it was overheating so I brought the best Zalman cooler I could for it (the one that looks like a half moon, can't remember the name at the moment and am to lazy to look haha). After all this it still won't work well. All drivers are up to date and I'm starting to think it is the mobo possibly.

    The sad truth is I've had only 3 dedicated graphics cards in my life. My first was a 256MB 5600XT which just didn't cut it for all my games. Then I got my laptop last year which is a 128MB (Actually it's 32MB with turbo cache) 6400 Go, then this year I got a lovely 256MB 8600GT which I'm very happy with!

    most of my cards have always been freebies or really cheap ex corporate cards,

    my corrent card is an ATI Firegl x1 128, Its designed for CAD, but it works fine in games. Its apperently an ATI 9800XT with some tweaks for cad appilcations.

    Well, though this isn't gonna beat any 8800Ultras, HIS has unveiled the first HD2900Pros and HD2900GTs. They're expected to beat a 8600GTS senselessly and compete with the 8800GTS 320MB. Two of these in Crossfire would be a pretty decent setup, don't ya think?

    The way I see it is, two of them cost $500US (about $600AUS) right? So why not save the extra cash and get a GTX, you will be better value for your cash and leave room for expansion. Two in crossfire should score close to a 8800GTS 640mb right?

    Would be easy to destroy an 8800 Ultra haha. Just set the performance settings over high and watch it fry. I did this to my Radeon 9550 with ATI Tool hahahha.
