:hmm: I think I may take y'all advice and get a 1080p TV instead of a card right now. I thought about it and it would be a waste to have a nice ass card and then get stuck at playing on 720p. I can tweak some games and get acceptable performance for the time being. For the record, I'm sitting about 5 -7 feet away on average and sometimes only 2 if I sit at the edge of the bed. I would still get the card but that would be maybe in a week or so if I can sell the current TV I have. I'd rather get that out of the way first.I had this TV for 5 years now.

It's all about how you want to play this.

Get the card, dump the vouchers, dump the old card and tv, and put it towards the new TV.

All easy moves one you've been in this game for a while

I'm letting my old TV go to my cousin for like $100 because it's really old and no one would buy that shyt online.

I'm about to go get this.
Sharp 40" Class 40" Diag. LED 1080p 60Hz HDTV LC-40LE431U - Best Buy
Then in like a few weeks or so I'll get the 7950 and sell the codes to recuperate the money spent for everything.

Tomb Raider is going to look soo good :ahh:

terrans have been shytting on zerg I was about to start bytching about imbalance but life makes everything look easy

I agree with you I think it would have been worthwhile to at least try some type of mech or something to counter life but its hard to argue vs flash

and watching first person streams of koreans is even more insane ...Im not a bad player but the best players are just ridiculous

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Just started playing Tomb Raider, and I'm undecided on leaving tressFX on or not, not because of performance but because she got the meanest weave in the game since everybody else hair looks like shyt :laugh: All other hair is some shytty looking flat texture, and she got this flowing silky soft hair and the difference is kind of jarring.

i ended up turning it back off because while most of the time the frame rate is stable during some cut scenes i had it dip down as low as 19 fps. i don't think it looks good enough to be worth the instability it causes.

Anyone using a G700? Copped it for 30 after the Amazon Logitech Sale last week (plus used up some Amazon points) and not sure if I want to open it or flip it. G500 has held me down for a while now, :to:

For all my windows 8 desktop users, please consider copping the logitech Magic Touchpad. It brings the gestures to you on the pad which also functions as a mouse. Really allows you to appreciate the beauty and fluidity that is windows 8.
