Wohoooooo

Hopefully gonna pick my XFX6800Ultra up tonight.  Not gonna re-format straight away just gonna whack it in and hope for the best  ;D  Fingers crossed it runs FS9 smoooothly and that it doesnt spit its dummy and fry itself.  Just hopin my Antec truepower 480w is gonna be up to the job.

Will try get screenies once I have it installed.

I'm waiting for the 6600GT to come out. Unfortunately we won't see an AGP version until October.

All I can say is wow, what a big difference over my GF4 ti4600.  

I have everything maxxed, 1600x1200 with 4xAA and 16xAF.  Sure at KSEA with 100% AI I drop to 20fps but its still silky smooth gameplay  ;D  I expect this is due to my CPU not the G/Card.  Put fancy water effects etc on and it just chews em up  ;D  

Never had my FS look so good and fly so smooth.  Oh and now for the real big bonus.  I cancelled my previous order and got this one for a bargain price  ;)

Forgot my bench scores. I couldn't be bothered to re-format tonight, just wanted to try it.

Well on 3dMark 03 scored 12059.

On 3dMark 01 only scored 18963.

A lot of people with better mobo/cpu combo than me have been scoring over 21000 on 01.  So what shall i save for next lol.

Excellent, good for you m8! Enjoy
