Nvidia PCX 5750
Nvidia 8800gs
Nvidia gt 330m (in laptop)
ATI 5770 - I was hoping to throw another one of these in crossfire, but looking at how well the gtx 465 scales...

mango, i hope you mean the gtx 460 because the 465 is utter crap...doesn't SLI well at all and performs worse and hotter than the 460...

lol did I write 465? damn I did... and no edit feature >:(

But yes, I did mean gtx 460. I heard it gets almost 80-90% of the theoretical scaling potential on current drivers!!

I'll just stick with the GTX 460, GTx 465 was kinda a kill-joy..

If your asking for GPu, then at the moment it's G92 ;)

Okay, at the moment I have Nvidia 9600 GSO 384MB (changing soon, again). Planning to take GTX460 - nice budget card.

I haven't been into the PC scene too long, mostly because i'm only 20. I remember my dad getting the voodoo series for our computers, lol.

I don't have much of a history but here it is.

Radeon X800
GTX 295
5870s X-Fire


I'm ready to take on crysis 2, unfortunately it's still not enough to handle crysis 2 at 3446x1920

Out of curiosity, is anyone else currently gaming with the GTX 260? I know it's mid-end but it's a pretty good card especially when it's overclocked :D

GTX 260 216 core 55nm Gainward Golden Sample, whcih should be sufficient for a bit. I have no plans to change it for the next year at least. Yeah, it is pretty good and i have decent enough frames at 1650 x 1200. No AA. I have ran it at 1920 x 1200 and it is still quite playable, but you do notice the slowdown during firefights.

I think the version i have runs more like a GTX 280. it does seem to overclock quite well from it factory overclocked settings. I had a go with it but couldn't find the right balance for Crysis. I hear that you benefit from overclocking the shader clock in Crysis and that is linked to the GPU clock. Before i heard this i was overclokcing more on the memory.


What can i say i got it because it was a good price (£130 ) and there were no 5850 or 5870 available at the time. I am very pleased with the card.

I've gone from my old computer, which had onboard integrated graphics, to an 8800GS that barely worked with that weak PSU, but improved performance by 60%. I was able to play through Crysis on low settings at 30-50 fps with that 8800GS. 2 weeks ago I got my new comp, which was built with an HD5850, I plan on buying another HD5850 for CrossFire mode when the price drops or if Crysis 2 at very high settings happens to choke this card.

I have a GPU question. If I am getting an ATI 5770 1 gig with a 1600x900 display, could I run crysis on all very high, and no AA?

I have seen pretty fast gameplay on very high with a 4870. And that only slighly out performs the 5770. So we will have to see huh.
