So? I see you guys change hardware about as much as I do :roll: idk I really like my 7750 I might just get a second 4830. The only thing stopping me is I can already max everything.. I might save up for a 990 and some DDR3

save for a 945BE DDR3 and a 4830 lol

If the 990 is FX then I definitely am gonna get it. If it's just "black edition" I will get a 945.

i have a feeling that there will be a higher clocked 150w phenom FX that cost an arm and a couple of legs but it will not be the 990

Well it's gonna be mid summer if I get a job so if there are FX CPU's out by then I am getting one and a 890GX. I wonder if the onboard is gonna be a HD 5300 or something on them.. That would be kinda cool. I might as well get a HD 5850 or what ever is out at that time.

I am done upgrading for a few years after the 790GX board comes in pretty much. Might get an HD4850 to Xfire with the current one but other than that the current setup does what I need it to do and more.
So Expect me to be a member of the PII club for a long time. ;-)

Constant hardware upgrades is an addiction. But it’s something that we all can get used to in a good way.:D

Yo CDA... I got my Liquid Nitrogen License today. ;-) Prepare to meet your doom.... (well maybe... still don't kno if I am gonna risk this 920 for a LN2 OC.)
Yes, in my state I have to have a license to handle it... which is easy as going to the DoR and requesting one... waiting 6 months and going to a 1-day safety course.
