how much do you guys actually think it takes to make a graphic card?



Ugly, hate-filled man.

A lot, I would have to think. You can't think about it in terms of materials though. It's all about designing from specifications, circuit analysis for different sections, allocating registers and making memory, etc.

Trust me Synchronus Sequential Logic and many other aspects of circuitry are not easy. :smile

Hell yes I mean look at all those circuts and everything they have to program.

That dua-card is cool, Nvidia always striving for something new as usual.

Well I don't envy. For me same way except I got an eVGA 7600GT.

Has anybody seen these, I thought 512mb cards were just this second released and i just came across these.

Im guessing they run using two chips but ive not seen much information about them.

They've been out for quite some time, I almost got one but thought it would've been pointless. Nvidia made the cards for better value and efficiency, like it's way less expensive than 2x 7900 GTXs but only takes up two slots and only about 10 percent slower.

Lol I never payed attention to what the Nvidia logo looks like. I think I do and I don't notice much of a difference.
