soo... what mobo do you need to run CF??

maximus_2

any mobo with 2 x16 pci-E slots will do it just fine, i would recomend getting an nvidia SLi board and CF on that instead...

well can you point me out to good mobo..??

like this one or that one?

I am planning on running Q6600, DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 PC2 8500.

stuff like that...

The ASUS one. Crossfire is much better than SLi. Two HD 3870's beat two 8800GT's(The 8800GT is a bit better with single card vs HD 3870 single card.)

but this ASUS still can support SLi too right?

No you NEED a SLi suportive mobo for SLi.

omg.... I am getting lost.. with what I should go.. SLI or CF..

SLi = waste of money. Crossfire is actually worth it.

[QUOTE="bkrawk"]u have agp, so im thinkin ur processor is pretty old and slow too, it's probably gonna bottle neck the hd2600supergamer1289

For the last time, BOTTLENENECKING IS NOT THAT BIG A DEAL. I would explain to you why its not but I am too lazy. I am sure everyone else will back me up on this.

I sure as hell do. I mean a Pentium 4 will bottleneck a 8800/2900/3800 series card a bit but its not like its gonna kill you. Any dual core(cept PentD's they arent really duals anyway[nativly]).

Uninstall Nvidia with 7600 in and then put in HD 3800 then install ATi drivers. I did this on a clients computer and it works.

[QUOTE="LouieV13"]My old 7600GS(worse than GT) ran BF2 on high with 4x AA got like 30-60fps on 64player maps.daytona_178

then why do i only get 20-30 FPS then? How much RAM was you using?

Hmm I had some Corsair Value ram 2gb at the time I think. BF2 abolutly HATE vista tho, I got like 5-10fps in vista with those settings.

Alright thanks for the replies. Are there any other models I can get that may be better thatn the ones I posed above, but for my price range

How about a DX9 card? Since I don't have Vista and don't plan on getting it, would a GeFOrce 7 series card do me any good, or are all these better?

FragMonkey09
The HD 2600XT works with DX9 games and XP btw :lol:
