video card upgrade

[stevty2889]

I am considering selling my Geforce FX 5900Ultra and getting a FX 6800GT. Using it for gaming of course, is it worth the upgrade though? The 6800 Ultra is a bit out of my price range, but a GT would fit my budget. Will I notice any improvements at 1280x1024(native resolution of my LCD monitors), or be able to crank up the AA and AF settings some more without losing performance?

Depends on what games you play, generally yes. If you want to get Doom3 it wouldn't hurt.

You would see a performance difference yes, but its up to you to figure out if the increase is worth however much a 6800GT will cost ya. I would say it would be smarter to wait till next generation cards are out. Unless you get a smokin deal on a 6800GT.

u may notice perhaps some iq improvements, but at that res i dont think the gt will help u much over ur existing card for current and i'd guess some future games.
