Hey guys i cant afford a 8800gts right now, but i can later on. right now i have a 7800gt and a 17 inch CRT monitor. I might get a 19 inch Widescreen monitor, will the 7800gt run games at high - medium settings at the optimal resolution of 1440 x 900??


thanks

how does ur 7800 perform with widescreen?
 
my 7800 gt performed great on my 19 in widescreen viewsonic. i could run every game on high settings (with some sort of AA/AF), except for oblivion (with settings on med/high) with this system:

3800 x2 at stock speeds
7800 gt at stock
2 gig of ram

now i have my 3800 @ 2.5 ghz and i picked up another 7800 gt for SLI. now i can run oblivion on high :D hope that helps
 
i game on a 21 inch widescreen @ 1680x1050 and its fine for me. cs runs fine and quake4 i only had to turn down a couple settings. depends on the game, if palying oblivion, be prepared to turn down the settings ;)
 
another question i have, is i have 1 gig of ram, i had to sell my other gig to a friend in need... :(... but its a good deed. Will 1 gig be enough to play at those resolutions?
