How lucky we all are!

[DandyBear]

I traveled up north to my parents house for the Holidays and I brought a couple of games to fill up some time here. For months all I read about in these forums was which card was better the XT PE or the Ultra, the GT or the Pro. Any gamer who has one of these cards wastes so much time thinking there is something better out there and forgets how lucky they are. Man let me tell you, try gaming on an integrated Intel 8284G Graphics Controller. Games are completely unplayable. Just made me realize how lucky I am to have a nice card in my rig. Well, I'll be home soon enough fragging all your asses again. Merry Christmas!

Yeah I agree. Too many people take what they have for granted. Enjoy what you have, big and small, 9600 pro and GT.

I fully agree with these sentiments.

I'm sat at my parent's PC with a 5200 graphics card in it as my 6800Ultra-equipped PC has suffered a breakdown of some description. I reckon the 5200 would struggle to overcome onboard graphics from what I've seen. A fight between the two would be like watching 2 octagenarians duking it out with sponge sticks.

If anyone wants to pop over to the motherboard forum, I've got a thread at the top of the second page about my gaming system failure.
