what was your budget for the build and did you stay in it? (if you dont mind me asking)
Its a great machine. Similar to my setup. I very happy with it so you should be too
man dont think abt anythin since ur a paient guy who's just like me, i will wait till the 8600gt or ultra, or the 8900gs, if u wait u'll always be the winner even if u didnt buy any dx10 card.r3351925thats the same thing i told him but he flipped out on me
second, you are talking about 7900gs and 8600series
[QUOTE="j3ninja"][QUOTE="el_carl"][QUOTE="j3ninja"][QUOTE="el_carl"]Now, I won't be getting vista for a while (maybe never) so dx10 seems sorta pointless for now. But the 7900 gs keeps dropping in price, like $150 or so on newegg. Should I wait and see how good the 8600 is on xp with dx9, or just go for the 7900 gs?people arent responding because its an obvious answer. if you cant figure it out then i dont know what to tell you Ummm... I don't know which is better. That is why people come to this board, to get hardware HELP. how is someone to know how good it is if it isnt out yet? nobody owns the card. the specs arent set in stone. even if they were the same, why would you by a dx9 card instead of a card that will do both dx9 and dx10? there are plenty of posts on this very subject, use the search feature Did you even read my post? I was asking if I should wait for the 8600 or get a 7900gs. I wasn't asking for a comparison. Before you flame, read all the post ;) the fact that it is dx10 should answer your non-question
