good for you :thumbsup: although I think three jobs is a little much. I'd also like to know how much they pay

Second one pays $15 an hour.
Third one pays $10 an hour.

Seems like a waste when you already had a nice card. But that's just me...

Good for you. Personally, even if I had a lot of money, I could think of plenty of other things to waste money on.

:shocked:

What exactly do you do, and how many hours do you work for each job in a week?

Funny thing is that I bought my 7900 GTX for $418 brand new when Dell that that deal. I sold it to my friend for $380 so a $38 lost is not bad IMO for a card that is just a little over a month old.

So I took that $380 and recycled that back into the 7950GX2. Not bad upgrade for $225.

$20 an hour for 20 hours at a winery (IS help desk)
$15 an hour for 2-3 hours a week if I even go to work a broadcasting corporation (sometimes there is work to be done sometimes there is not)
$10 an hour for the school computer lab for 12 hours a week (sometimes more hours if people go on vacation)

Let us know what kind of *noticeable* difference you see in performance b/w the GTX and this one. BTW, what native res does that Westinghouse run at?

I have a 37 inch widescreen LCD and the upgrade to 7950GX2 was only $225. I'd say it's worth it.

How does the card handle games at 1920x1080?
