Bah... I am pretty bummed out over this. I have $600 to blow on the next gen video card and do NOT want to a get a meager 8800GT just to have it 1-2 months and see nVidia release some balls to the walls card. Grrr... But my uber rig is not sitting collecting dust while I use this X2 + 1950 Pro (AGP) :-/ What to do... What to do...
I don't like the idea of AMD's GPUs because of their issue with AA... AA is so important that I will sacrafise other details just to get it and the ATI card doesn't do so hot with AA, or at least it 'didn't'... Not sure if these new cards are better or not.
The problem with dual GPU onto one card will be the diminshing returns. If I am going to pay for two cards on one PCB, then I expect twice the performance, not a 50% meager gain.
