      yeh it does i can have all settings maxed out at 60-80 fps at 1280x1024 but it really hasnt got much kick like on tomb raider legend i can have all settings maxed out but when i have next generation content enabled i drop to under 20 fps so i just want something a little bit better

      thanks

        Then turn the graphics down a bit on tomb raider legend, you can't have maxed out on everything, *tsk* greedy

            Just get a single 7900gt. IMO right now anything more is a waste.

              Single, unless you plan on getting a BIG monitor

                  I'd say the GTX is the best.

                    Yes but spending that much on a card, when DX10 is just around the corner is a waste.

                          Upgrading from a 7600GT to a 7900GT is silly. Only do it if you can sell your old card for 3/4 or more of what you paid.
