Needless to say, I WANT ONE. Unfortunately, I'm a broke college student, so I can't afford one.

But wouldn't Precursors look SWEET on this baby?

WOW, do i feel poor!
Well needless to say I only have a 128 mb Graphics Card, hoping to buy a 256 soon; then I find out, quite sadly, that they come out with a 512 graphics card... I'm sad, but great find!

I've got a 128... however it's only a fx5200. It's crappy. I want a new one.

So, basically, we have the same card? :P

I have a Radeon Xtasy which is a PIECE. Quit whining.

Dang . . . I can't imagine being a serious enough gamer to need THAT thing.

I didn't know you had Dawn's GeForceFX5200 256meg Neo. That's cool. I went all out and bought a Radeon 9800 with 256megs of ram. It pwns.

Morgul · « **Reply #8 on:** November 16, 2005, 07:56:52 pm »

Yeah.. it's better than my card. I want that one contingencyplan posted, though.... damn. I wanna hump it.

whitelynx · « **Reply #9 on:** November 16, 2005, 09:45:33 pm »

Personally I'm happy with the one in my lappy... GeForce Go 6600 128MB... my laptop kicks the shit out of my desktop, which has an FX5600 in it

Caenus · « **Reply #10 on:** November 17, 2005, 01:59:08 am »

Heh, I'm stuck with the integrated PIECE OF UNMITIGATED CRAP that Dell put in my laptop . . . for now. At least my PC can run HALO and Enter the Matrix.

PieceMaker · « **Reply #11 on:** November 19, 2005, 01:35:46 pm »

Yeah Cae, just be glad they didn't give you the one that they gave my parents, a crappy GeForce2Go with 32 megs of ram. That's Crap.

Oh, I know I already posted this in the GoRC forums, but since most people here arn't members of that one, I'll go ahead and post it here. This kicks that other cards butt: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814124115

P.S. This was $1,499 when I last checked and it just went up. Holy Cow.

Caenus · « **Reply #12 on:** November 20, 2005, 12:54:56 am »

I honestly think I could come up with something better to do with 1500 bucks.

Morgul · « **Reply #13 on:** November 20, 2005, 01:17:34 am »

For that, I could get one helluva nice laptop with a FX Go 6800 in it, and be really happy. I really don't see the need for that card, since it's not all that good at games anyway. It's for modeling, not for gaming. There is a definite difference in design there. Then again... I'd love to see Maya, or Cinema4D on that thing...

Caenus · « **Reply #14 on:** November 20, 2005, 01:20:25 am »

Heck yeah! Maya would pwn on that thing.

PieceMaker · « **Reply #15 on:** November 20, 2005, 08:09:20 pm »

Yea, it would. I'd like to see that thing in action with Maya.

Caenus · « **Reply #16 on:** November 20, 2005, 10:40:48 pm »

You know, I did some animations with Maya a few months back . . . too bad I deleted them.

Infernal · « **Reply #17 on:** November 29, 2005, 01:48:22 pm »

woahh thats one nice graphics card im sure it would be cheaper at newegg.com though

ryguy_1617 · « **Reply #18 on:** December 10, 2005, 08:01:44 pm »

my laptop has a radeon sumthin w/ 256 megs (dont feel like lookin up specifics right now :P)...it can run 3ds max and halo well, but I am still gonna try to get a new desktop soon so that I can put some pwnage parts into it, therefore killing any limitation my laptop has (e.g.: im gettin like 3-4 gb ram so that i dont have to deal with that crap that happens when I work with alot of objects or meshsmooth ititerations in max to wher my pc runs slow sometimes...it anoys the crap outta me.)

Dawn · « **Reply #19 on:** December 13, 2005, 11:17:48 am »

Currently I have a x700 256mb pci express 16x. It is the pwn, except for that the fact that even my fx5200 outpreformed it while running dualies. When it comes to Dual monitors, Nvidia turns ATI over it's knee.
