This thread brings a tear to my eye as I continue to ponder the sublime and ridiculous

Topplayer I must ask for I deduce but three branches of logic that can disseminate from your post that I have quoted for future accuracy.

1. Your parents have provided you with the Navigator
2. You are lying to better enhance your self-esteem by attempting to get under the skin of other posters on this forum.
3. You are insane.

My reasons for such deductions is based on the rather obtuse logic of driving a Navigator and working once a week anywhere for a discount. That is simply ridiculous unless one of the above situations proves to be true. Your use of the teenage venacular lends support to the concept that your parents have provided you with the financial wherewithal to support such a lifestyle (either through trusts or outright gifts) but in the end I must ask why you don't get SLI 7900GTX's (as I am doing) and watercool them (as I am doing) and enjoy the best performance on either SLI or single card action on your (I am sure) 30 inch Dell or Apple LCD screen.

Next time on as the e-peen turns

Topplayer goes toe to toe with Rollo and Keysplayer in a special three way silicon elimination match. Sorry I couldn't resist.

Disclaimer: Topplayer. I am joking; this thread is funny to me and I in no way know what your life entails and would never impugn it in seriousness. I am joking 100%.

I would go for the 7900GTX 512 myself. I also owned a 7800GTX OC but still decided to go with the evga 7900GTX 512 overclocked SLI watercooled setup. I am not rich but sometimes I get the itch to game at my native 1920x1200 resolution with eye candy.

Then save up and get 2 SLI 7900GTXs. or one 7900GTX. Make sure to get the EVGA Superclock version if you can.

Strikes me as an odd combination of words!

If money is no issue, buy two 7900BFG 512s and SLI them together... then stick the 7800 into the fireplace and light it with a lit roll of 100-dollar bills, then toss the 100-dollar roll of bills into the fireplace and laugh like a maniac... then jump in your olympic-sized swimming pool behind your mansion for a swim... have your butler bring you French wine and Russian Caviar... go ahead, you're stinking rich!

If money actually IS an issue, stick with the BFG 7800 you have now. There is little justification to go from a 7800 to a 7900... I seriously doubt you'd notice much of a differance.


I laughed

I was wondering if anyone would ever comment on my take at having money to burn!

I still say stick with the 7800GT... unless you really do have "money to burn", I don't think the performance jump is worth spending money unless you just "have" to have the fasting card on earth. Surely there's something else you'd like to spend your money on then a few frames a second?

P.S.
If you are stinking rich, please send this old retiring Air Force guy some money instead of tossing a lit roll of $100 bills into the fireplace. Retired pay ain't much you know!

Dance with me oh material self-worth
Glazed eyes wandering to and fro
Looking unseeing for approval
To discounts of material glow I go
For my wealth I display by rote and show
Dance with me oh neighbors so poor
That I may laugh and snicker by my Bentley's door
Gentle venacular of ignorant youth
By-the-by approval required to my ego sooth

Live long and prosper my Microcenter working Peep. May the SLI spirits bless you and to all a good night ... err ... day. :laugh:

Alright then... You called my bluff. But being the "Top Player" that you are, I'm sure it comes naturally.

I dont have aim but even if I did, I probably still wouldn't put that much effort into verifying what you say. I will now believe you.

However, instead of being a liar, you are just spoiled terribly to the point that it will probably effect the rest of your life in a very bad way. There is an old saying that is: "Its not what you say, but how you say it." I know you are only 17 but you really need to check yourself now while you are young and still being supported by your parents...

That is just my $.02 as I will be the first to admit that I have a long way to go myself.

Also, TopPlayer... Just out of curiosity, what do your parents budget for you on average to spend per month?

This is by no means meant to be insulting as Im sure any one of us here would love to have your resources.

Well, looks like what we got here is a chance to see how a quad SLI system performs in modern games.

Topplayer, your mission, should you choose to accept it, is not to build a pedestrian 7900GTX or X1900XT based box like the rest of us plebes. The octo-sli is a hilarious joke, but it is possible to get a quad card machine this very minute. Not at Microcenter, but hey -- your parents are made of cash.

Here's your box, should you choose to go for the truly 1337 stuff.

http://alienware.com/product_detail_pag...e=PC-AURORA-ALX-R4&SubCode=SKU-DEFAULT

Get that, and I guarantee you'll get lots of attention if you benchmark some games for us.
