Hey guys. Since I'm getting a mtoherboard based on the X48 chipset, if
I wanted to use two graphics cards in parallel, I have to go with ATI.
This isn't ideal :(
Therefore for my new build, is their an ATI card with similar
performance to the nVidia 8800GT (as this seems to be about the right
price) that I could get now?
Intel's latest chipsets have built-in CrossFire, ie, ATI standard. But NVidia seem to be in the leading edge....
The benefit would be that as soon as this ATI card starts to fall
behind, I can stick a second identical card in and get better
performance.
4850 (and 4870) are really bargain deals.... Do you really need to use 2 VGA cards? You need good ventilation to keep the whole system cool. Also, a big fan means the loss of a PCI/PCIe slot per VGA card.
