Dual DVI cards in .BE?

27th June 2005, 19:59

'llo

I've been looking around for some time, and I decided to get a dual tft setup.
So far so good, but the tft's i'm buying are both dvi and my graka (ti4800se) only has 1 dvi-out.

So I chose to get a new graka (that gf4 was getting outdated anyway).
Which card can you advise me? Dual DVI is required

The budget is around €250.

Thanks!

Oh and btw, my mobo only supports AGP

I just looked it up, and the price of the XFX Geforce 6600GT is €230 in my local pc shop (Pretty expensive, but good service and very close).

Any other cards to recommend? (Eventually an ATI competitor?)

ATI does not really have a competitor for the 6600GT in the €250 price area

the X700 is just not powerful enough, and the next on is the X800 which comes in at €300

It's gonna be the 6600GT.
It seems to perform pretty well next to the 6800.

Thanks everyone

getting a vanilla NV6800 and modding it may pay of better World of Warcraft v1.5.0 US Patch, Blitzkrieg 2 Closed Beta Test Sign-Ups

Where can I get this card in .be?
And does it have dual dvi connectors? I've only found models with 1 dvi and 1 vga.

Thanks

Edit// Ok, i've found that the XFX version of this card has dual DVI. But it really isn't in my budget, do you guys know any shops where they go under €250?

only 6800 LE's go under the 250 € price afaik
vanilla 6800 are a bit under 300 atm.

Hmmm wel, the purchase is for the beginning of August anyways. I hope prices will drop 'till then

Or are there coming ~€250 7800 based cards then?

I don't think so. 7800 series is only going to be pci-e. Hitachi 7K500 500GB SATA 2 Hard Drive

Try Germany. You can have 6800GT's @ 250 € there (agp).
