It seems from your other threads that you're totally confused about what card to get. The integrated Geforce 6100 is not enough for Quake 4. Just tell us your budget first.

I'm a big NVidia fanboi, so my obvious choice is....... X1900XT!!! :eek: Sorry NVidia, the 7950GX2 is one ugly and expensive card(s). :)

Well considering its 2 cards in one its not that bad for the price , im just trying to find out if it really works at full on a non sli board.. nvidia site does say a A8N-E supports it but knowing my luck it would only work half the card >.>.

Well, wait for a few more reviews, or you can contact the NVidia help and support section and they might email you back with an answer. It is supposed to be non-sli, so you'd think it's alright.

This card amazingly works on non sli boards. If you got cash to burn.. 7950GX2
Its alot more faster than the X1900XT really.

Its also features HDCP.

if you are 13 and can afford either of these cards, i need to talk to your parents about a no interest long term loan.

You can run this on an single Nvidia 16x pci-e perfectly mobo fine, but you need a special driver for the mobo and/or gpu.

the $599 7950GX2 (XFX at Newegg, non-factory OC) shines if you are gaming at 1920x1200 on a 24" LCD. Otherwise, just get the $399 1900XT.

I believe theres an X1900XT listed in the Hot deals section which is $370 after rebate, so I'd say go with that card... however if money is no object, the GX2 will no doubt be slightly faster.
