Re: a question

me niether..doesnt make sense...

And also a 420W generic psu will not handle too 9800Gtx's very comfortably...

Re: a question

I'm lost....

And you intend to run 2 9800 GTX's on a 420 watt PSU?

Good luck with that.

Re: a question

I hope you have a better PSU or your nice investment is gonna be a smoking one. And not smoking fast. Smoking dead.

I would say s 8800 gts's, but really....

neither! because you're not going to visibly see much of an improvement, unless you have a massively large monitor and your playing crysis.

The human eye can't detect the difference between anything abouve 60 FPS I think.

It is just overkill and a waste of money, but you have your answer


BTW, using Newegg's wattage calculator . You're PC under "my system" requires 773 watts

Essentially... you'll probably fry your PC as soon as you plug it in.

Re: a question

WOWOWOWOW 1600USD thats not bad, lolz, 2*88GTS are fine, i presume they are the 320MB/640 ones amirite?

so therefore they are the G80 chips (and the 88GTS 320/640 can are the entry level of high end if not mistaken) u are better off with the 98GTX not GX2 or the 88GTX, u can OC the GTX to match up with the Ultra or the 98GTX or so i have heard. hehe i have a large poster of Cyberpower items on sale, and the one ur buying is not bad at all i would have bought it myself if they delivered to the UK cuz that price is quite cheap!

The procs is awesum i have it, its quite a nice improvement for a good price, and your mobo is fine, ram is ok, 2 98s are better than two 88sGTS ( Unless they are the 88GTS 512MB ones (G92) ).
