I broke down and decided to get the BFG 6800GT. It is here on my counter, and I do not know if I should unwrap in and put it in. I feel kind of guilty. Even though I only spend $220 dollars, I still feel guilty. Did/Do I really need it? I guess my 9700Pro is still good enough right guys?
 
How did you spend only $220? UNWRAP IT AND INSTALL IT! Its FAR better than the 9700p! I would love to have one, but bills come first. :(
 
seriously, DESTROY IT WITH A HAMMER. AND TAKE PICS OR A SMALL MOVIE

I would SOOOOO much love to see that.

Buy a High-End Card, and smash it into pieces!!!!
 
I got canned heat in my heels tonight baby, throw in that GT and sell your 9700.

Click to expand...

Wouldnt that be blasphemy.
 
Before I take it out of the package, which drivers should I use, 65.76 or 66.31?
 
if it helps your decision any, i put my 9700 pro on e-bay YESTERDAY for $75 and a BIN of $125 and sold it in a few hours.
and i have a 6800GT on the way..... :D
 
I find the 9700 pro plenty good enough for my needs, but if I already HAD the 6800GT, why not install it unless you want to profit off of it?
 
MemoryInAGarden,

Have you ever played Doom3 (or FarCry) with a 6800GT with everything set on the highest?

Or the warm fuzzy feeling you get when a game autodetects your visual settings for you and sets everything on the highest?

Trust me I know, I have a 9700Pro also (oc'ed with VGA Silencer Rev. 3) and I thought it did pretty good....until I got the 6800GT (best $300 I ever spent...of course I said the same when I bought my 9700Pro a few years back, but that was an upgrade from a Radeon 7200 VIVO 64MB). :D
