Why can't you buy from Newegg for fucks sake?

[QUOTE=Soldier32;17151772][url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121291[/url] Free shipping and a MIR.[/QUOTE] That's definitely going on my list. I'm sorry I'm being kinda pissy guys. I had some projects to do on my computer, my grandma is in the hospital. It feels like things are kinda falling apart around me. I have 3 questions. 1. It seams that ATI cards have around 600+ more Stream Processing units then Nvidia on a lot of cards, why? 2. How's this [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130469[/url] 3. Will a PCI Express 2.0 x16 work on a regular PCI Express x16 slot? Edit Also, I have this type of Motherboard, if this helps. [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131180[/url] (Man, not many good reviews eh?)
1. The way ATI makes their cards makes the stream processors run at the same speed as the core. NVIDIA however makes less of them but they have their own speed (much faster than the gpu core speed) 1. It's rebranded 9800GTX+ that is smaller and uses less power. The 4870 1GB runs huge ass fucking circles around it. 4870 1GB beats the GTX 260 216 core(not by much). 3. Yes.

[QUOTE=Yumyumbublegum;17152696]Get this.[/QUOTE] So, you guys are saying I should get the 4870?
Yes, do it.
Just fyi, we don't give a fuck about your grandma. Mine is dead, but I don't get pissy about it.

He is explaining his problems and u are such an asshole Be more friendly so I can rate you :love: instead of giving you a nice box :banjo:
get this card, it's cheap. [url]http://www.amazon.com/ENGTX285-TOP-HTDI-1GD3-GeForce/dp/B001S2PXJ2[/url] but on a serious note, get a 4870 for right now, i wouldn't wait for the 5 series to be released since rumors are like the 5850 is 200 dollars, which is not in your budget.

That could end up being worse than the Austin Powers meme. Don't do it.
Thanks guys, I'll get the 4870.
