So I built my first computer early this July, specs below, and the video card I bought was a EVGA 9800GTX KO edition off of Tigerdirect for $209 or so. However I have like 25 days on my stepup thing and I am wondering if it is really worth it. I mean I can run most games well but I do not want to pass up a good oppurtunity. Right now I would have to pay around 80-90 dollars to step up to a GTX 260 or I could pay a 100 and get a 9800GX2, but I have heard those have problems because they are just two cards stacked togehter and do not work for some games. Also am I gonna get that big an FPS boost really? I am a fan of AA and AF but my monitor is a 19 inch samsung that only supports 1440x900. Any help would be great.
I have a AMD Phenom 9850.. I got it before they messed up the overclocking , I think it is like a black or unlocked edtion, so I got it before the 9950, then I have 4 gigs of DDR2 800 ram, Vista Home Premium 64 bit, Antec p180 case with 850 watt quattro antec power supply, and a 32mb cache 7200 rpm Seagate Barracuda Hdd, and a xtreme gamer fatality card.
