Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.
128mb Radeon 9700 Pro up until august this year, yes it was possable to still use it
GTX 260 core 216 bit of a step up
Cards that *I* have owned:
Geforce 4 MX440
Geforce FX5200
Radeon 9800Pro 128MB
Geforce FX5500
Radeon 7000 32MB
8800GTX
Radeon 9250 256MB
Obviously they were spread over several machines The principle machine went from FX5200 -> 9800Pro, then I built a new box with the 8800GTX in. The rest cycled around various computers and are now all sat in a big bag in a cupboard waiting for me to sell / freecycle them
Geforce 256MB
Geforce 4 MX440
Radeon 9800 Pro
Geforce 6800GT
Geforce 7800GS
Geforce 8800GT 512MB

Crap, does that make me a fanboy? Must...buy...ATI...
Now this is going to be scary. See if I can remember...

Nvidia 8600GT 256MB (Waiting months for 7900GT warranty, all I could afford was this).
Nvidia 8800GT 512MB
I have along the way had integrated Nvidia 6150 and ATI 3200, but always with an actual card plugged in so never used in anger.
Nvidia bias because I use Linux when working.
Edit to add: Never had a card last as long as this 8800GT. Must be time to upgrade
