Video upgrade came sooner than I thought.

Having just got Oblivion I and been playing it for a few hours I made the decision that running at 1680 x 1050 with only one 7800gtx was not enough, so I had to order another!

Before anyone says that I should have got an X1900 or a 7900 series card remember I already had a 7800gtx in my system and my budget didn't quite extend to shelling out more money for less performance - compared to SLI 7800gtx.

Why do you think anyone cares?

Because this is a video forum. If this isn't the place for someone to come and gloat about their new purchase then what is?
 
It should arrive tomorrow so I will install it then and get some pics up.

I will have 2 Leadtek 7800gtx extreme in the end so will look quite nice.

 
Very cool. I was about to suggest the ebay the 7800GTX x 2 (going price is about $350) and get the 7900GT for $330 instead, but 1. the $ savings won't even pay for lunch and 2. you can't get a 7900GT at the moment, never mind two of them and 3. lack of instant gratification.

Congrats on playing Oblivion the way the devs wanted you to experience it.
