I like both cards. but it's a fact that the 512MB 7800 GTX is better.
No, it is actually in the Geforce 6/7 era... Wow dude, you really don't know what you're talking about do you? There was an article about it on theinq, and I suffer from the problem myself. In fact, I have to set image quality to high quality to get rid of the problem, but at the expense of AA.apokalipse said:yes, but people already know this. it is cutting corners, but that was in the Geforce 4 era
current cards are different.
why get personal about this? even if I'm wrong about Nvidia and AF, that does not mean I don't know what I'm talking about.003 said:No, it is actually in the Geforce 6/7 era...

sounded like you didI didn't quote you on anything. the fact is you continue to argue about adaptive AA when it's just an option. I didn't say you said it wasn't.
not sure where apokolyspe gets that info. that adaptive AA thing is an OPTION
that is true, although I think that generally, the people looking for the absolute best card are not worrying so much about price.You just keep hitting that topic. I'm not saying saying the x1800 is the best but if you want to do a "price performance" comparison, it is at $150 less

Hes only hitting that topic so much because 003 wont shut his dumbass mouth.I didn't quote you on anything. the fact is you continue to argue about adaptive AA when it's just an option.

Actualy to take yall both down it was the Geforce3 TI500 to be exact. That was when they came out w/ 3x or "quincunx" AA. Now THAT is taking shortcuts or cutting corners. It did not have the performance of 2x and did not have the quality of 4x either. It was crap and thats it. Also were talking about Anti-Aliasing here not Anisotropic filtering. So bringing up Nvidia and its "shimering" thing dosent really bring up a good point.No, it is actually in the Geforce 6/7 era... Wow dude, you really don't know what you're talking about do you?
Absolutely right here. Yall should really quit arguing over price. Exactly when do you think you will get this card IF you get one? Probably not right now so why argue over the price thats not even 800$? That price and card are for the ppl who want the ABSOLUTE best and dont care what comes out of their back pocket. Shit i would be willing to bet 800$ is like nothing to some of those folk where you guys are sitting ehre arguing over it. Even if it WAS at 500 what makes you think mom and dad will just go out and buy you the top card in the market? Didnt think so. So IMO quit arguing over the **** cards until you can afford them THEN it gives you reason to argue becasue you can actualy put one of those beasts in your machine.:beard:that is true, although I think that generally, the people looking for the absolute best card are not worrying so much about price.

Thats why I got a 7800GT, which although its slower than the bleeding edge, it still screams, and I don't have to pay $800 for a graphics card, let alone $1600 for two of them in SLI.
