Your friend is a lier, go bust his lip with a bowling ball. Heh I know what you are talking about, theres always people making these kinds of claims, like my friend who plays doom 3 at 1600x1280 on a 9600 pro. It DOES work but the FPS is total crap, mine could do that with more fps but they refuse to acknowledge that my card is faster, oh well who cares.
