Has anyone got a geforce 3 yet??. I've been thinking about one but i'm not sure about the performance for the price. I know what it is capable of for various websites i'm not sure if I should wait and see what ATI delivers with their DX9 compatible card.
Currently I have a 1.1Ghz oc with a Geforce256 DDR so I'm not not in that much of a rush to upgrade.
Cheapest I've seen the GF3 for is £297 inc VAT on dabs.com.
decisions decisions, why can't life be simple....all I ask is for loads of money so I wouldn't have to go through this justification phase!!

Funny you should ask that, we've had one turn up today as a miss-ship by a supplier.

Unfortunately, they want to collect it tomorrow and drop off the right part.

£297 inc VAT is a good price.

Chris.

Just checked out the dabs, that's definately a good price for the GF2....very tempting. It's just that ever since my house mate has had his Voodoo5 games without AA look cr@p and the GF2 hasn't got enough power to run AA....god damnit.
I know, I'll start a HW website and before I know it I get loads of free goodies coming my way to review......www.needfreegeforce3.com
