game that will push video card gimmicks - aquanox

its not even about using the new features like 8.1 dx or crap like that

its about raw speed

i can run any game at 1280x1024 at 32bit color, 2x FSAA and NOT fall below 60 FPS at ANY time.  i hover at 120 fps which is my monitors max refresh rate at that rez

If you put it like that.
Well I never play games over 1024x768 anyways (dont think my monitor likes resolutions above that).. But extra FPS are always nice. (60fps and over dun really matter to me)

I think Ill keep my GF2 abit longer though.
GF5 is coming out soon, right? :nerd:

Then GF3 will be cheaper :) (Im a greedy SOB)
