This card is a beast! I fired up COD 2 and the combo of my Opteron 180 and the video card, Made for some of the smoothest game play i have ever encountered. I will be testing this out with Future Games such as BF2142 within the next few weeks.

Yeah those cards are pretty fast. I didn't get one because it only gets you around 1-2 extra fps in most modern games, but for about another hundred dollars. I'm content with my x1900xt for the time being. Congrats on getting the fastest ATI card out though!

This card is one of the best on the high end Price To Performance Ratio. I didn't even pay 400 bucks for it.

Yeah but it's the most expensive ATI card so you can't really say it's the best in price/performance lol. I got the x1900xt for about 300 or so a few months back. I'm not saying it isn't an awesome card, just that it's a little steep for me. But for you, I'm sure it's great. (I'm on a fixed budget so my splurges must be in smaller denominations lol) When are you going to lan with us to use that bad boy?

When Ever you guys get ready to have another one. And i said best price to performance as far as the high end scale goes. I'm not buying an 8800GTX i don't need DX10 that bad.

x1900xt is 625 mhz, and x1950xtx is 650.. Price on the former is under 300, price on the latter is under 400.. Price per performance isn't how you should describe your card, that's the point I was trying to make lol. Because performance-wise, you get an extra 1-2 fps over the card that costs a hundred bucks less. Yes, the card is great but it isn't at a spot on the price per performance curve that could be described as best price/performance. Does this make sense now? I'm not trying to argue, just trying to make a point that I don't think I've been able to get across this whole time. big grin
