Whats crazy about it. I wish i had one of those X1900XT.

PS: they are only 16 pipelines but has 48 pixel shader units. which really helps in games like FEAR.

Oh well one day

Grover I want to sit next to you at PZ, so I can worship your graphicscard.
FS2004 must look so real that I need to buy a ticket to fly anywhere.

Nah mate, FS04 looks the same. I can record movies with heavy clouds now without suffering huge frame loss which is awesome. Ive yet to install any other games. I must have a look at Lomac. If I had a working wheel I would install GTL as well to see what thats like.

Cheers mate, but I wont keep it. I'll wait for insurance and buy a momo or something similar

Your card is Directx9 so pretty much no change in the graphics department but its just got more grunt so you can crank up the graphic options and still get a good frame rate. Still the x800xt is still a good card, just starting to hurt with games like Cod2 and FEAR where you cant get as much eyecandy due to frame rate.
