Sure I prefer nVIDIA right now.There blowing ATI outta the water.But if the new card ATI is coming out with and the Crossfire system has a good 20% increase in proformance over nVIDIA I will gut my SLi rig and put it on EBAY so fast it will make youre head spin!But as they say in Missouri.You gotta"show me" first.

I'm happy with what I have now.
But if I were to upgrade, I would still have to think before going for ATi again.

Really hope to see the leadership ATi displayed when it released the 9xxx series again.
Hope the product line gets streamlined too. XT. Pro. XL. GT. SE. Confusing ><

But I really like the driver support of ATi, the constant upgrades and nice interface and of course, the nice community. -> Holds me back from going nVidia the next round. ^^

Too bad I can never use my AGP X800XL in a crossfire mobo.. but I couldn't wait until x-fire comes out to upgrade my card. Also I didn't want to go PCI-e yet because I want to wait till X-fire comes out.. a catch-22.

I know it is not realistic to think I could.. but when I upgrade my mobo and crossfire systems are out.. it would be awesome if somehow I could use it..

Now if I want to use X-fire- I will have to sell the AGP X800XL at a substantial loss- buy another X800XL PCI-e, then buy another one. Oh well. I do want a crossfire system for my next major system upgrade.. running 2 X800XL's.

Too bad there isn't even a hint at a release date.

I'm happy with my 6800gt so no ATI for now unless they start making cards that blow nVIDIA out of the water.


A new CPU is what I need too. I have a 2.4 and I'm not getting all that I can from my vid card...or so I've been told.

I've got the bucks $$$ and i'm ready to do my upgrade to PCI-E and get me a new GPU.
Just waiting for ATI to show their cards. Either way, we the consumer wins.

I hope ATI does it again. I really prefer ATI to nVidia.
I wonder when the first R520 reviews will hit the net. Also hope there will be plenty of cards availbale on launch. nVidia had cards available at my suppliers the day of the launch. And thats no small feat as I live in South Africa

There won't be cards available.. Apparently ATI is having problems again with manufacturing! And if it's REALLY a 16 pipe card, trust me, spend your money on the 7800 series. I hope ATI has a good answer to But anyways, u got a nice PC right now, I'm sure you can wait for the real kingpins to come out and fight!
