My X800XL has thrown a wobbly so I need a replacement asap, which means I can't spend loads. It needs to be PCI-E, VIVO would be a bonus but not essential and it definitely needs to be capable of playing Outrun2006 @ 1280*1024
The X800XL was okay, but I've actually got an SLi compliant motherboard, so I was thinking along the lines of nvidia, maybe try to get a cheap 6800LE and softmod it. Anyone got hands on experience of the last gen vs cheaper end of the new gen, or any reviews of the same? Should I avoid spending under ?100 now and just buy a ?20 6200 to tide me over for a month until I can afford something better?
Also if anyone knows of retailers trying to shift any old stock then let me know, otherwise recommend away!
