Currently im making myself a nice new computer ive already brought some parts to it within my budget here they are:
MOTHERBOURD
GIGABYTE : GA-8N-SLI QUAD ROYAL.
INTEL D PROCESSOR CAPABLE NVIDA CHIPSET SLI MULTI-GPU CAPABLE SERIAL ATA II RAID NVIDA FIREWALL DUEL BIOS CAN SUPPORT UP TO 8 GIG IN RAM MEMORY FROM 4 SLOTS.
To name a few features.
CPU
INTEL PENTIUM D PROCESSOR 805 2.66 GHZ x2
PROCESSOR HEATSINK
ZALEMAN CNPS9500
ITS A REAL BIG MOTHER!!!!
And a nice case.
My question is got any advice on the first of my 2 graphics cards for this system there are just 3 things it must comply with.
1. MUST be a NVIDA chipset [aparebtl if it is my motherbourd is set to enhance its performance in certain areas by up to 5x]
2. Must cost up to ú200. [For now i cant afford any more]
3. MUST be sli capable. [ meaning it can be linked to another NVIDA graphics card]
Hope you can help me there are a lot of graphics cards out there to chose from -----------------------------------------------

7600GT seems like your best option.

Nonsense, I've ordered plenty of parts from overclockers and I've never once had a problem. --------------------------- What can I put here without getting banned? |

Edited by: Suze''Rain on 18/06/2006 19:22:52 really would reccommend running a mile from Overclockers - they're downright shoddy service, especially if you have any problems and need refunds, etc.
If you can sc*****ú21 over your budget, I'd reccommend BFG GeForce 7900 OC. I bought one as a replacement for a faulty Asus 6800ultra, and it's a superb card. blistering speeds in single card format, yet alone going to SLI. also has a lifetime warranty on it, 24hour tech support too.
fantastic peice of kit, was well worth the extra (I was budgeting at 180-190 for a graphics card, but went for the BFG board instead, based on review results. the only bad point I could say about it is that it's slightly noisy when running.
remember that SLI requires two *identical* graphics cards, so you'll be looking at a slight extra cost later too in going for the BFG card(s), but if you do a search online you should get some reviews which include it tested in SLI format, where it just about blows the 3dMark tests off the scale....
