Dont upgrade for atleast another year, you could probably get away with playing every game at the highest settings for a very long time with that GPU. To be honest for someone with a GTX 295 you sure dont seem to do much researching about what you have there :| thats an expensive card! I dont see a question here what so ever its seems as though its another E P**** thread. Well done your pushing 10" the only problem is it wont go up... Masculine!Too_tight_shoes
How did your core die? :(

How did your core die? :(
OCCT's large CPU test it ran for the first 40mins just fine then it crashed, I reset the CMOS booted it up and checked a number of programs and found that I only had 3 working cores I set it back to 2 cores and left it at that since it kept crashing. I guess AMD know what they are doing seeing as though the CPU didn't pass their Quad tests, from now on I cant recommend the CPU for anyone looking to get it unlocked and stable especialy since Im not the only one that its happened ocuk forums have 26 victims of cores failing after heavy CPU benches.[QUOTE="Slig0"][QUOTE="Too_tight_shoes"]Dont upgrade for atleast another year, you could probably get away with playing every game at the highest settings for a very long time with that GPU.

It crashes in microseconds for cry's sakes! Don't push your CPU with those programs, they are useless at most because I have a stable CPU which only fails in prime and in nothing else.
what you mean;;; when you say;; you could probably get away with playing every game at the highest settings for a very long time with that GPU.

I dont see a question here what so ever its seems as though its another E P**** thread.mikeandsaintsWhat I meant is pretty obvious. Im tired of people having £400/$500 companants and then having the nerve of asking if they should upgrade, like they dont know what they have and how to use a search engine to find pages after pages of information about how those componants the most powerfull things you could get. Everyone and their mother here knoes its not worth it!

I agree to some degree, seeing as I had the CPU as a quad running for 3 weaks of solid gaming at 3.6Ghz mind you they do help by reasuring you that what you've done is worth it and working.
Also I would like to add that I suffered no frame loss in any game by going from Quad to Dual at 3.8Ghz... kinda obvious :P.
that or if you have learn english or Ebay selling lesson you can sell ur 295GTX & GET a 5870x2 lolz but you have so much power that even i my self would just skip on for a year before Get DX11 it not like i think current Dx11 Game Graphic Oblitaring the DX10 Games in Graphic therm before at last Q3
even tough i'm quite impatience to see alien vs predator the new game for DX10 vs D11 it rumoured to use Tessellation & other Gimmick exclusive to Direct 3D 11
but i see somethings things and tell me if i do wrong i see that my gtx 295 beats 5870 5850 and 5770 am i right;; ok my card doesnt have direct 11 is true but when i went to see which games will come with direct`11 in the http://en.wikipedia.org and i saw which games will have direct 111 like battleforec aliens and 2 more so itsnt not worth to buy direct 11 card am i right;; for only 4 or 5 games;; so it it woth to update my gtx 295 in 2010;; yes or no;mikeandsaintsYes the GTX 295 beats anything 5870 and lower, though the 5870x2 will come out soon which for sure will beat the GTX 295 save up.
omg , you really have lots of money to burn !! this is called consumerism! you'er card is excellent , wait for at least mid 2010
poor him with is english he can't even understand what i said i even tough my english isn't perfect and sometime can be a mayhem does of my Zero punctuation :P he should being able to read iv said well he can either sell is 295GTX on ebay.. it a card that may sell after 5-6 month in page of product's and then once he get money back he can buy a 5870x2 if he want that much more power :
If i could sell my 4870x2 at a decent price id get a 5870x2 asap but oh well it still A Excelent Video Card beside i mean it not logic to buy a 295GTX at 500$ then let it Rust in Box like i did with most of my dead pc part product :P
It depend if you sort of rich like 200K income also i know people who really burn money away. there ain't sage. they buy a 3500$ Worth PC and 5 month after they buy 1.200$ Of upgrade and that without sell any of there previous product they just are spare part in case there video card / processor would blowout for few week's until rma

Marc why are your posts ALWAYS long and confusing?! I don't have time to read an essay whenever I get on GS. For example, I recommended a rig or commented on a game, I wait for the response to see what other people will say and I see 1 new reply MARCTHPRO. I know that I am going to have a headache... Aspirin pleeease... JK :)
meh I'm working on it but did you understand at very least essential of my post ? i try to use more punctuation to have a easier English to read at last to try to explain my tough. i think & type allot but not always in a pure logic consolidated Therms : so anyway i keep help people as more i can and with lot of detailed info
anyway this guy seem to being lost tough poor him. he sure seem to need more english anyway he keeping is 295GTX i hope he find a way to sell it or that he get a 750-1000W PSU & Buy a Lucid hydra 200's combine it with new ATI / nvidia card Via hydra Lucid 200's if it work as it planned :P they combined a HD4850+260GTX but no FPS result where given only word that say that bioshock was runing good

Yeah, you should use more commas also. But anyway, I clearly posted: JK. I always understand your posts, it's just hard to read them ;).
Lol it was the same guy [QUOTE="mikeandsaints"]but now we dont have a lot of hardware with direct 11 am right;; so for the 2010 will be a lot of games with direct 11;; am i right;; and these ati cards which came now in 1 years will not can handle the newst games with direct 11 am right;l so what is the point;;; od to buy now new card with direct 111;; this is the last questions ok;; There really is no point if you got good hardware for current generation, but they offer good performance for the kind of price(5870 is not much behind GTX295 but is much cheaper).This thread reminds me of another one I saw... One dude trying to get an answer relentlessly for what should he do with his GTX295...
