| GF 7950GX2, your new graphics card ? With the first (limited) benchmarks in mind, are you interested in buying the nVidia Geforce 7950GX2 ? Or stick with the 7900GTX (SLI) ? Bad value for money or decent performance gain/price ? Just curious |

| let's see some real benchmarks first, 3DMark is all good and well but doesn't reflect gameplay too much, and his FarCry tests are CPU limited and he's not running high detail levels or resolutions or using HDR 3700+ 1024/786: 82.45fps FX-60 1280/1024: 82.35fps jah; so until we see performance numbers and useful wattage numbers I'll just wait and see

| it was when they first announced it we are 22 days later now and BIOS update seems to be enough for some boards
