here is my system:
Motherboard---Asus M2N-SLI Motherboard - NVIDIA nForce 560 SLI, Socket AM2/AM2 , ATX, Audio, PCI Express, Gigabit LAN, S/PDIF, USB 2.0, Firewire, Serial ATA, RAID
Ram---Corsair Dual Channel 2X TWINX 4096MB PC6400 DDR2 800MHz Memory (4 x 2048MB) 8GB total
CPU---AMD Phenom 9500 Processor HD9500WCGDBOX - 2.20GHz, 4 x 512KB Cache, 1800MHz (3600 MT/s) FSB, Agena, Quad-Core, Retail, Socket AM2
Power supply---Ultra LSP550 550-Watt Power Supply - ATX, SATA-Ready, SLI-Ready, 135mm Fan, Lifetime Warranty
I also have 2 500GB SATA hard drives(if that matters)
I wanted to go with the ATI Radeon 5850 (XFX), but waiting over a month and now longer is annoying. should i even go with ATI, or should i focus on NVIDIA in an SLI configuration. i need real advice as to what Video card(s) would best suit my system. i am committed to actually haveing a kick-ass gaming experience, so i want to have beast-like performance. advice?
