leungwk01 : Newest high end ones can go up to around $1700. Quad SLI, but its overkill. Not for a single one, you probably mean 1700 total. The most expensive card now is the ASUS Mars which costs atound $1000 but it is a limited edition.

Yeh I'm talking about that one but I assume it would be around $1700 because in UK its �1000. And the currency from GBP� -> US$ is about 1.5 or something.

Here is the link: [url=http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-203-AS&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=1324]http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-203-AS&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=1324[/url] The price is from GBP� since I'm from England and not US. Limited edition as in only 1000 of them in the world.

HOLY CRAP is this the card that can run crysis on max?

Don't have a clue but assuming they have a monster setup then probably yeh. Overkill setup as in I7 OC@4.2GHZ , 256GB+ Intel SSD, that GFX above 12GB tri-channel @2000MHZ etc. I'm sure other high end cards will be able to run crysis on max like 2 GTX 295 in quad SLI. But if you buy it, you'll know for sure ^___^

Perfect card for 33 bucks: [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130313]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130313[/url] Amazing performance for all but high resolution gaming. You can't get any retail graphics card for less than 20 bucks, don't bother with used ones either. That 8400 GS CAN in fact play crysis on HIGH at 800x600 at around 10-20fps

20 fps is unplayable ive been able to get down to 5 fps on high (especially in the editor) 8800 GTS 640 3.25 GB RAM 3.0 GHz Dual Core X-fi Xtreme Gamer

Whats the point of playing on high if your res is only 800x600? And an average fps of 20 is considered unplayable, which means youre wrong.

For mapling- a 9500 GT would suffice. If you want a midend- a 9600 GT. For REAL gaming you need AT LEAST 9800 GT or 8800 GT.

again, can you tell us what you want to do? Light gaming? heaving gaming? replacing a card on an old machine?
