biulding a new comp soon just waiting till conroe comes out.

new card for comp will be either 1900xtx or gx2 have the money to goto the top of the range in these cards just under £500

witch is better and witch is the best make to go for, also can i live without HD or AA on nvid card ?
also is there a great difference between 1900xt , xtx, xtx toxic
 
Welcome to anandtech.
1.its which not witch
2.U can live without HDR
3.U need AA for a good gaming experience.
4.There aint really any difference between the 3 u mentioned except that the toxic has a liquid cooled core(i stress on core cause the memory isn't cooled.It has ramsinks though)
5.If image quality is important to u,u should buy an ati card.As it can run HDR+AA+HQAF.A radeon x1900 xt can be had for as low as $400(or less,in e-tail).
6.If IQ isn't that important,the 7950 gx2 will be great.Sure it can't run HDR+AA but it gives the performance greater than 2 7900 GT's in sli.
And whats the rest of the rig look like?(what are the specs?)
 
so i never said i could spell 😛

rest of rig isnt biult yet waiting for conroe to come / prices to fall to see what mb cpu ram i want and what cooloing to go for .

I don't know I play without AA in oblivion and really like HDR just up the res if you can. Gaming is still king on the CRT. I am off to adjust resolutions.
 
im running a 21" crt belinea 108080 so can go upto res of 2048 x 1536 so want to biuld a system that will run games with all the eye candy

was also thinking about gx2 is it 2 x low end 7900 gpu's is that why clock speed is lower ?
