i'm not upgrading but am building a new system now
i received comments that if i don't play 3d games, getting a 8800gt is overkill, like buying a ferrari but only drive at 80kph, hahaha. i'll do some research again and see what's a suitable gc for me. i do video editing, but some said gc has little effect on video editing.
Well, for the performance 8800GT offer at today's prices, it's a worthwhile investment. For these kinda performance say 2-3 years ago, it would cost RM2k easy. So if a Ferrari is offered at Proton prices today (Kancil too much lar), best grab it. i received comments that if i don't play 3d games, getting a 8800gt is overkill, like buying a ferrari but only drive at 80kph, hahaha. i'll do some research again and see what's a suitable gc for me. i do video editing, but some said gc has little effect on video editing.
And yes, GC does have some effect on video editing. For eg. read this: http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index...28055706AAyu6FO
For those waiting for 9600GT, dun hold your breath, this model is NOT meant to replace/beat the 8800GT. Read this (see bottom post): http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/582537/+400
Happy CNY everyone.
