yes of course .. finally someone asked .. i have so many cards to give away .. send me 30$ shipping cost to paypal funds@techpowerup.com, include your address and the card you want

If by the slightest chance I win that $200 contest, don't pay me, send me an autographed (signed) X1900 XTX you have in that box. :)

If you are giving away cards for $30 I'll gladdy get in on that, I'd even pay a little bit more since it is going towards improving TPU.

I know I know, but people can dream can't they.:laugh::laugh:

I wasn't actually expecting you to give away any of the cards, how would you keep writing reviews if you did. I was just playing along.:)

Does anyone know if the HDMI out can be used in conjunction with the 2 DVI ports or do you give up a DVI port when using HDMI? I want to run 2 22" computer monitors with a 42" plasma. Or am I looking at 2 cards?

I believe it will, when it's not in SLI mode. I haven't tried as I don't have an HDMI savvy display. But, in this state (SLI off) you'll see 3 possible displays for it in the windows display settings. When it's in SLI mode it will only output to one display and you'll only see one display connected to it in the display settings.

Hope this is helpful,

Wizard great review the 3870x2 really keeps up well here. From what you have read do you think a 9900gtx will beat the 9800 G92

Could you perhaps use older ones you no longer use in bench marks as prizes ?
