    Post Your Graphics Card - Spring 2006 Edition

    Hey guys,

    Its that time again to post your current graphics card - post only your main gaming rigs card. If you answer 'other' please post a reply with what card you have.

    I'll get the ball rolling...

    EDIT: Can a mod please change the poll so the Geforce 6800 Series - reads Geforce 6600/6800 Series - many thanks. Thx Matt D

    Keeping it old school with a 9800 Pro. Does then job, but will upgrade very soon. (Though may hold out for M2 before I make the switch to PCI-e now!)

    Currently on 7800GTX (Gigabyte) @ 490 1300

    I only use it for DOD:Source and it runs the game smooth at well over 100FPS

    Will upgrade to the G71 in April in preperation for the Unreal 3 engine (Quake Wars)

    You mean Enemy Territory: Quake Wars? It's built on the Doom 3 engine.

    Card is in sig, X1800XT at 680/815 stock volts at the moment, with this cooler if anyone is interested

    And Unreal 3 is meant to be out Sept 2006... i.e. after G80 and R600 are expected to launch... so maybe wait for them?
