I don't care if it's 0.043 FPS slower than another card, or if it's better value to wait 6 months for the price of another card to drop by 3.6 %, just look at it!, I want it!!, Look! it's sooo good your powersupply can't handle it!!!

Code: Select all

80-Watt External Power Supply Kit : Provided easy-to-install power supply kit to upgrade your system for dedicated and stable power input to maximize the overclock-ability.
Actually that's a bit shit, sod it, I'd still buy it :ignore:

When are they going to start putting PCI-E slots on grpahics cards so you can plug your motherboard into them?

I'm not going to get into a "ooh my powersupply is bigger than yours" argument but it's not my PSU I'd worry about if I bought that, it's "How can I horse a PCI express card into my AGP slot"

My point is they assume your PSU can't tek it, which is a bit silly considering it's a Crossfire card

So?

The 7800GT costs half as much and lets me play Beef2 at 1600x1200 with all the settings at max while still giving me about 50-60fps.

if you're buying one card...

well, frankly it'd be retarded to buy a crossfire master card.

Even though your motherboard isn't even 5 ft big, and it would generally only have GPS running if it were on a motherboard... So that would be pointless... Unless it were in a laptop. Mehs.
Me want 2x7800GTX
