        Don't you have a 1280x1024 monitor? These high-end cards are not being put into good use unless you use a larger resolution...

          I have one...runs perfect with 91.37's (beta). Great speed and great IQ. Running BF2 high with 8AA and 16AF and maintain 100+ FPS throughout. No overclocking at this point.

            Indeed it may run fantastic (I actually recommended the 7950 in fevergaming's trusted products thread), but I don't think it would be worth the upgrade for Bald-Eagle.

              Why not worth the upgrade ?

                  No i can see its not ,,,what i am saying is that i could easily selll the 7900 GTx for £250 and for £150 more i can buy a 7950

                    Yes you certainly could, but you won't see £150 worth of improvement with how small your resolution is.

                    I could have sworn I posted this in your other thread, but whatever:

                    As you can see the 7900gx2 pulls ahead of the 7900gtx at 1600x1200 w/ 4x AA

                        Yeah, the fps ought to be higher with the 7950gx2 and that 1680x1050 monitor than the 7900gtx and that monitor. But you're already getting going to be getting over 60fps with the 7900gtx, which should be really smooth. With your abundance of money, I think I would spend it on 1920x1200 monitor and just keep the 7900gtx. Or you could get the 1920x1200 monitor AND the 7950

                        I don't think that getting a 1680x1050 monitor is bad, I just think that the 1920x1200 would be a much more impressive upgrade and should still be playable with the 7900gtx.

                              I recomend Samsung 20" LCD SyncMaster 204B, maximum resolution 1600x1200
                              wich means its not widescreen
