A slightly faster video card with more memory in my lifetime? Who whoulda figured?

Just think, the next time you upgrade in a few years (at least for me), those cards could be upwards of 2GB ram... for a GPU! And Fry's will have them for like $100. What a world we live in.

amen to that.

These graphics card companies are ridiculous. They pump out $400 cards every few months now like if we were going to upgrade every time. Not to mention there is only a handful of games that even need a card like that.

It would be really cool to have a 512 MB videocard, but I'm happy with my X800 Pro and I don't think I'm going to have to upgrade my system for a few years.

I know nothing about hardware or anything, but that's a beautiful card picture.

>_> I feel like such a geek/nerd/whatever.
