Yes I too like the 9000 Pro too. Best bang for the buck IMHO.

How is it for the new games AgENT? Games like Doom3, HalfLife2, FarCry, UT2004, etc...

Oh BTW, everyone should try Pariah. At least try the demo from here

So far I have only tried Doom3. I had to turn everything down but ran just fine.

I am thinking on getting a new game soon.

Just got a used computer from my brother-in-law.
It's got 1 gig of ram and has raid, whatever that is.

He also gave me a radeon 9700 taht I got to see if it works.
WooT!

Anyway dl demo NOW!

In computing, a redundant array of independent disks (more commonly known as a RAID) is a system of using multiple hard drives for sharing or replicating data among the drives. The benefit of RAID is increased data integrity, fault-tolerance and/or performance, over using drives singularly. In its original implementations (in which it was an abbreviation for "Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks"), its key advantage was the ability to combine multiple low-cost devices using older technology into an array that together offered greater capacity, reliability, and/or speed than was affordably available in singular devices using the newest technology.

At the simplest level, RAID is one of many ways to combine multiple hard drives into one single logical unit. Thus, instead of seeing several different hard drives, the operating system sees only one.

What he said.

I wonder if MJ1 swallowed a Computing Dictonary...bwahahaha

Thanks MJ1!
