BF2S Forums Card has arrived. WOOt wOOt!

Haha. Yeah. I do remember the tanks and the weapons. Not the most beautiful weapons.


I think that I can thank my 3.0ghz processor for the survival.

I am not going to have 2gb but only 1.5.

Yes and looking so much forward to it.

Oh my goodness, 512 MB and a 5200 - are you sure you were playing BF2 and not some Tetris?

1.5 GB is not 512 MB.. It's like 1536 MB.

Tomorrow will be a lovely day. My computer store has finally got my grahics card. A beautiful x1950 pro 512.
Tomorrow they will put it in with a 1 gig of ram. Buy buy to the long loading times and the horrible graphics made by my 5200fx.

You fail at being a smartass

My cards....

MSI 9250 (First with a P4)
Sapphire 9600XT (upgrade!)
MSI 9250 (a bridge while waiting on next upgrade)
Powercolor X850XT (fucked on arrival)
MSI 9250 (used for 6 weeks awaiting replacement)
Powercolor X850XT (fucked after one week)
MSI 9250 (used again for another 6 weeks awaiting replacement)
Sapphire X300SE (got a PCIx16 mobo, using while waiting on next card)
Powercolor X1900XT (wheeee teh frames omg)
Powercolor 9600XT (mobo fried, back to old P4 AGP system)
Powercolor X1900XT (wheeeeeee new mobo)
Matrox Millenium G200 AGP (mobo fried again, using a decade old 450mhz machine because the P4 broke (thanks mum))
Should be back to the X1900XT tomorrow, hopefully....

On topic, why didn't you get an 8800? Or is the price gap between the X1950pro and 320mb 8800GTS bigger then I think it is?

Hah, quite a list there. Maybe you should spend a little extra money and buy a graphics card from a good company like BFG, etc. and stop wasting money/time on the worthless ones you mentioned. Just a thought.

Yeah, powercolor is pretty dodgy. I got the two screwed X850s from them, and when I got my X1900, the PCB had (and still has) a large bend in it. Also, the PCI bracket was so twisted that it wouldn't fit in against the back of the case, and I had to take a pair of pliers to it to straighten it out. And this is a brand new $550 card.
