I was quite surprised at the increase in speed despite the fact that the 5770 is shifting double the amount of pixels that the 9600GT did.

As for reusing the 9600gt its already gone a new home, and is paying for part of a new mobo in the process. My ASUS M2N SLi was fine with 2 9600's (the second got sold months ago) but couldnt cope with anything else in the second slot....hell I think it has issue with the 5770 as it takes 4 or 5 attempts to get to post!!! but when it does its fine.

So new mobo probably a Asus again maybe a crossfire capable one as I was thinking in my previous posts.

All in all thus far im happy......except I cant get UT 2004 to play ball :/ but Im sure I'll sort it :D

COD 4 is really only because I do the odd lan party where it comes up. EVE however is my main aim as it seems to consume most of my game time. Up untill now my gaming has been done on a single 24" using a 9600GT which fine for EVE with max settings, (Except 500+ ship fleet battles but that kills most cards :D)

Im just concerned that if I do go for 5770 I could end up with a lemon :? which not only doesnt do EVE justice but makes my system look a bit poo at my next lan :oops:

You bring 3 monitors to a LAN? You're pretty awesome. There is a CoD4 thread in the "Multi-monitor" Forum look it up.

That's what I was gonna say too. The lans I go to would kill me if I hogged enough room for 3 LCDs. I have enough trouble with 1 24" as is at a lan.

:D well the 3 monitors will be going along this time, I've practically been begged to bring them just so people can have drool. Besides it helps that I run it, and we only get 20 or so in a room that could fit 40 :).

Thanks for the COD 4 details got it up and running fine, unreal 2004 aswell although the menus are all over the place. Either way the card hasn't stuttered once yet, so I'm going to gave to find something to push it and find it's limits.
