That's way over 99% don't you think?

That is a possibility since extreme high-end cards are mostly consumed by Homo sapiens who masturbate to numbers and think decked out Mac pros are too cheap.

Is it just me, or have you been dumped or something? Most of your posts reeks of sarcasm and annoyance.

couldn't move my tube monitor so not anymore did with my pair of 4870X2's

Fair enough. So your going to pay about 600 or 700 bones to play 2 games at a resolution you no longer support?

Like I said at this time this card is pointless. I really wish it wasn't but the fact of the matter it is. That is of course you are running like 3 monitors. Then its perfect.

i am not i am however not going to bad mouth the card i have always thought they were cool all the way back to the 7950GX2 i had. the pair of 3870X2's i set up for my bro's rig run 1920x1080 very well to this day. so is a $600 card worth it if it lasts? 3870X2 came out in 2008 and still plays all the games in 2011. i got another for $80 recently so a cheap performance boost.
