(maybe it was with a certain motherboard or something)

just something to look at...


also see ati crossfire

What motherboard do you have?
What processor is on it?
That should affect your decision greatly.

I would stick to ati for amd or nvidia for intel. If not, your bound to run into problems.

Hmm interesting concept there, execpt hta i have been using Nvidia/AMD combos for years, without any hitches, and all of the intel/ATi combos i have encountered have been running similarly well for ages


There is no issue, just because the company is the same!!!


Still, for my say. Depends on the prices your paying. I got a 9600 for £70, and i must say that for the money its an insane GPU. However, the average price of a 9600 does not justify its overall capability, so unless you can find one at a knocked down price, go with the 3870. Also, if your willing to splash out, get a 4850 which anhialiates (i can't spell that word) anything in the Nvidia 9 series
