I'm trying to decide if I should upgrade to a Gainward 4400 Geforce. Why that card in particular?? well, I don't want to upset current card owners, but on all other Geforce TI4 brands the DVI output reaches a maximum of 1280x1024. Now see, it just may be me...but if I am going to spend 250$ for a video card, I want it to be a bit future proof. LCD screens are the future, and even a 19inch costs less than a 1000$ dollars now...granted it's not 1600x1200 enabled, but give it a year and that kind of specification will drop below this price point, and have that forward-feed technology. What really pisses me off is that there are some older geforce 3 and 2 cards that can support 1600x1200, and it looked like the companies in their infinite wisdom thought there was going to be a regression of technology...I don't know why since for the last couple centuries that hasn't been the trend, but I am looking at that Gainward Golden Sample,
Then again, I'm also wondering if I should wait for the other cards coming out from Matrox, 3DLabs, Nvidia, and Ati...but the question is when. Does some kind soul know around which months they should come out? I have a Geforce GTS-V right now (it was a great value), but with the new games coming out, do you think I would be waiting a disproportionate amount of time to my enjoyment factor?
By the way...I have an old Savage 3 card. According to Nvidia or it's card manufacturers (whichever is to thank), I won't sell it for less than 150$. If the trends be right, I'm sure you're all drooling over it right now.
