    Well, as I don't turn 18 till November 1st (ONE DAY AFTER THE SALE ) they won't let me do it. So I told a co-worker that I would pay him $50 and do it for him. The way I look at it...I sell windows xp and make up the difference .

    The rig I have now will last me for another year or two, especially when I get 2x512 Buffalo Tech and the Revo to go with some Ultra's

    Maybe when A64 is nearing it's death I'll finally build one, lol.

    Well, I'll probably end up getting the parts at the end of october, I'll sell them and buy the A64 if no one has one by then.

    On young Jedi, I dont know if I would go with someone that is that young to the industy.. I would wait to see how the drivers are working out in compatability before jumping on a new maker

    I would rather have a slower card with stable drivers then a faster card with crap drivers

    The card looks impressive in 3Dmarks, but that doesnt show real world performance.
