Well when i actually purchased my 8800GTS more than an year back, i thought it was the best mainstream card at that time. Just as i purchased it, out came the news of the GT and its performance gains and i was heart broken. So i have been waiting to change the card since a long time as well. And yes we are in the same boat.

Also, I agree. I mean, sure us nerdy guys like ourselves some digitized pr0n, but seriously, what about some badass artwork (read: fantasy demons/angels) or some GoW-esque macho men. We like our violence too :P For the HD4870X2 though, something subtle and maybe even a backlit cooler...cmon, you're paying $500 for this thing!

Well if they go to school here and theyre parents didnt go to english school they have to learn it

Plus it's the law to be used in business, posters/signs etc.

You *need* some french/you will pick some up in Quebec.

It's the Law
