Post by: Petrarch of the VBB on July 19, 2003, 03:21:27 pm: I'd bid for that, I really would, but for 2 reasons.
1. I hate nVidia cards these days
2. I have no way to pay over the net.

It's a problem, especially since it seems I won't be getting that Radeon9800 from PCG.:mad:

Apparently, they didn't have the comp one month, so WireWorls got annoyed and are now acting all petty and refusing to supply the prizes.

BOO-****ING-HOO, I say.

Just my two pence, especially since if those two conditions were met, I'd buy it. :D

Post by: Corsair114 on July 19, 2003, 11:59:14 pm: I just bought a 5200 FX last weekend. I love it. It's got: Out for a second monitor and TV-out. Good stuff, really. Of course, I can't vouch for your AGP card though. I have a PCI version myself, what with my ancient motherboard not having an AGP slot.

Righto, moving along...

Trying to figure out which is worse in this case... the 5200 FX or the fact that its PCI... ;)

Post by: Sandwich on July 20, 2003, 12:41:40 pm: Erm... what's the point of getting an anything-Force if it's PCI? I had a 2x AGP board as the performance bottleneck of my GeForce2MX card... :doubt:
