Hi,
Right now I have a 9600gt 512mb for about the last 2 yrs ago and it has been very loyal to me.
I'm thinking about upgrading to a 5830 newegg has it on sale for 214-20 rebate = $195
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 5830 1GB
Is this a good card for this price, and is this the card for me?
I run 1920x1080 res for the main screen, and I have 2x 1650x1050 on the sides (triple monitor setup). None of my screens have displayport, so I don't think i'll be eyefinitying (if thats a word xD) for a while.
I mainly play online mmorpgs ie Guild Wars and RTS games ie World in Conflict, C&C/Red Alert, but also sometimes shooters ie BF2, COD4,5,6, L4D1,2. I want to be able to max out these games.
I want something like the 9600gt that will last me for about 2 yrs. (I know, tech gets outdated, but the 9600gt stood the test of time!)
Specs:
Phenom 940BE 3.0 @ 3.6Ghz
Biostar ta790gxb
4gb ddr2 ram
750watt psu
THANKS!
