I have currantly

8800 GTS 320M Factory OC card

AMD X2 64 4600+ @ 2.3

Asus M2N4 MoBo

4G Ram

I am looking at either this 9800GT 512

or this AMD 64 X2 6000+ @ 3.1

I wounder how much this thing is going to cost? I could see it as much asmid-lineHDTV when it finally comes out, and is it even worth it?

Well he's said that they're the same price, so it would cost him the same to use a 320meg one.

Of course, if they were different prices, then I'd tell him that it wouldn't be worth it.

Actually, OP, why don't you just buy one of the new GTS 512's or a GT? It's cheaper then buying another GTS 640/320.

G013M

I'm trying to match all the numbers to see if this works.

Its just the prices iof the cards are so close to each other if not the same. I would think, intheory the 640 should work. But G013M has a point about one canceling the other. A litlle bottle neck is ok, but not that drastic.

Ok, I have a 8800 GTS 320 meg and I want to run SLI since my board supports it. Though my card thats almost a year old is coming up abit expensive, in fact the 320 meg version is the same price as the 640 meg version.

My question is can run these two cards in SLI? Theye both have a core speed of 575 MHz and 1800 MHz mem speed and the same chipset.

I choose Sins of a Solar Empire. I love the conceptthat Stardockdid with Gal Civ 2, I hope they do as well with this game. I love the DoW series, but this is the third expansion and dont see much new gameplay as Sins offers, we shall soon see.

The second one had this great feel to it that made it very enjoyable, but does have that arcade feelas well. I hope the new one has the same enjoyment I and with the 2nd one. The demo has since peaked my interest

Wait 'til after the holidays, you will see more people playing.
