just found this on amazon. is it a bargin? or will the 128mb ram hold it back? only needs to run at 1280x1024 AA would be nice too. i'm wondering if its worth the extra over the 6600gt or standard 6800

[alterion]

no it is not a bargin.. it will perform veery slightly better than a 6800nu not really worth it.

fair call, pleased to hear it too, i just got me a 6800 by glacier instead, nice and quiet and overclocks by 20% too!! thanks

another point

my new card says it needs 2 differnt power rails into a 'y' splitter then into the card? is this really necessary?

It needs two molex connectors?

[noah]

yup, thats what its says, tho its calls them 'hard disk power dongles', i'm guess thats the same thing as a molex. trouble is the 'y' splitter splits one molex into 2, not combining 2 molexes on seperate lines into 1 for the card! very confusing!!??

Sounds strange and unecessary
