For 999.00 you cab have one of these.....
« on: May 05, 2012, 05:28:34 PM »
....... http://www.evga.com/articles/00679/#GTX690

Here are the spec's

http://www.evga.com/articles/00679/#GTX690

And where to buy it

http://www.evga.com/products/moreInfo.asp?pn=04G-P4-2690-KR&family=GeForce%20600%20Series%20Family&sw=

I dont know if it will work on some motherboards as it being PCIe3. But it looks like a monster.

In about 5 years they won't be. But this thing probably will.

 :x.... if only I had 1 grand laying around....

Was reading something somewhere ( Iforget where) because I had the same concern about 3.0 working on boards. Supposedly 3.0 is backwards compatible, but 2.0 wont work on 3.0 or something. its a matter of speeds transmitted in the PCIe slots or something. Someone somewhere along the line will be able to add to this I'm sure.

Try 2 years. In 5 years this thing will be considered a joke.

Yeah but that one isn't even the big one....take a look at this ridiculous waste of coin. I am not going to consider any of the cards with a price point up over $300 or so. I just can't bring myself to spend money like that on something that will isn't going to do more for me that show pretty graphics and will still be limited by the speed of a CPU. Maybe when the video card becomes the complete package I am all in.

$1049.99 just on a flippin video card.
