Thanks for the replys ... Based on some replys and other information I ended up taking it back. The more I looked at the card the more it seems to either be tampered with or just a bad run. Plus .. the prices of the GTXs seem to be dropping ... so I guess it was a good thing :-)

Hmm ... didn't think they would price match against NCIX. That could make things interesting.

k k ... I'll take that burn cause I can't argue the Futureshop point. I normally buy all of my equipment from ncix but couldn't find the superclocker version on the web site for some reason. Speaking of which my Sonta III case should be here anyday anyway thxs for the help

I purchased one of the eVGA 8800GTS cards the other day from furtureshop. Nice sale they are having on them ... 100bucks off .. $350 for the eVGA - e-GeForce 8800 GTS 320MB Superclocked PCI-E. After unpacking the card and checking for any damage I noticed the large eVGA sticker covering the...

err ..scratch that. Must be patient and hold out for a better version.

Hmm .. this is interesting though. Futureshop.ca has the BFG 7900GT 256Meg. card on sale. Our price: $429.99 Discount: $110.00 Sale Price: $319.99 Mail-in rebate: $50.00 After rebate: $269.99 If i get thier Service Plan on this for $50 it covers it with instant...

True enough. After looking around I'm starting think that my processor is causing the bottleneck. I have a feeling that if I just upgrade my processor right now I will be able to turn my settings up to max in BF2 and wait for the DX10 cards to come out.

Oh man ... the research goes on. Finding this discussion doesn't leave me with a warm fuzzy fealing for the 7900 series though. GeForce 7900 Inferno

So this one - EVGA E-GEFORCE 7900 GT KO 500MHZ PCI-E 256MB 256BIT 1.5GHZ GDDR3 Dual DVI-I HDTV Out RoHS - $324.50 or go for the 512meg version - VGA E-GEFORCE 7900 GT KO 560MHZ PCI-E 512MB 256BIT 1500MHZ GDDR3 Dual DVI-I HDTV - $457.80

Ya, 1280 x 1024 and after reading review after review of all the cards I was considering the 7950GX2 would be overkill for my system and I wouldn't even see the full benefit due to my processor. I started looking at the x1900xt and was sounding like an excellent idea, especially considering...

- EVGA E-GEFORCE 7900 GT KO 256MB 256BIT 1.5GHZ GDDR3 Dual DVI-I - $324.50 - -Athlon 64 X2 4600+ Dual Core Processor S939 Manchester 2.4GHZ 512KBX2 90NM - $308 $632.50 sounds like a nice price point. Not to confuse this more but what if i was to purchase a SLI Board and another 7800GT?

Heh .. that processor goes into the wifies computer. Processor and CPU. Looking into that now. To be a bit more specific to my above question, 'm really looking to get a better FPS in BF2. Right now I run BF2 in 1280 x 1024 but I need to turn down some of the graphic options. I would...
