Hey OMM,

I will be building a new PC for my home soon. What video card do you recommend? Without going too overboard on the $$$.


Those 7900gt cards are a real good value for the performance. I'm sure that Major Abuse will agree.

The next best step up would be the 7950 overclocked cards.

8800's are good for the future with the DX10 but seem to be lacking in the fps performance for the older games running in the reduced graphics mode.

Now if they would only do two 8800's on the same card, like an 8850 with overclocking then......

If your looking for something good and cheap, browse through www.Newegg.com OR www.TigerDirect.com
I found a lot of good stuff for under $60 ( + Shipping and handling )

In my case theres a Tigerdirect store near a mall by my home soo i dont pay Shipping and handling.

I've noticed alot of the screenshots i've seen people post, for example, Rommels recent screenshot are really dark. Do you play at this brightness level? Or is it the image hosting site that causes this? Just curious.

Zone Alarm firewall was the reason for my game to be very dark everytime I logged on servers. Everytime I started to play I had to adjust brightness higher, otherwise it was impossible to play. After uninstalling it game has been lot brighter on brightness level right from the map loading page.

Well, I see one familiar name on Nothing´s screenies, that ring a bell. laugh.gif
