-It would mainly be used for graphic design/gaming/misc, as of right now I am torn between gaming with my 360 or pc (once it is operational).
I currently have a EVGA 9800 GX2, it has served me well through our time together but I am currently giving my computer an overhaul (Some forum trolls such as myself might have seen my other threads). I should have done this about a year ago since I've owned it for a little over two years but whats done is done.
A lot has come out since I bought the 9800 GX2, which at the time was the best avaliable. I have done a fair amount of research and know about the current 400 series cards etc...
I was looking for one in the 300$ to 400$ range that would do well in an SLI set-up, if I chose to do that in the future. I saw something somewhere about the a 520 coming out soon but I don't know if I should wait for that, or if it is even true/in the near future. After looking at NewEgg, I've kind of decided the 480 was a bit steep in price for the time being, especially if I were to do an SLI set-up.
I do not know if I would do an SLI set-up but I now have that option with my new case. I have a thing for matching components so I was looking at Asus cards even though I have an EVGA card atm.
Help as always is appreciated.
