Do you think that its worth getting a Directx 10 card now? Or do you find it better to wait? |

Actually, I got the ASUS 8800GTX on the day it was released in Finland. |

I'm waiting untill all the issues are worked out with the drivers etc. I also don't feel like getting vista just yet.. mainly the price of upgrading is holding me back, but the performance isn't great yet either so thats also stoping me. |

Nothing wrong with the current cards besides a few drivers need to be cleaned up, but if you dont need it. Waiting will probably benifit you with a better card and better drivers. If not then atleast you know you can get a better price! |

I'll buy a new computer in the next days and I'm probably getting a 8800gts 640MB. But I also think about buying a 1950pro first and switching to a DX10 card a half a year later. |

I think it's worth buying a DX10 card if you're upgrading just because they're some of the best on the market right now. However, I think it's not worth it to upgrade JUST because you want DX10. DX10 still has a bunch of bugs and isn't in many games yet. |

I bought a BFG 8800 GTX OC2. It was a big upgrade over my 7900 GT SLI setup, even just for Windows XP / DirectX 9. I'm able to run at 1920x1200 with higher AA and AF values than before. I haven't installed Vista yet, but I didn't upgrade for the DX10 capability anyway. I just wanted a fast card for DX9, and that's what I got. I've had very few driver issues, other than the flat panel scaling issue (for which they issued a workaround last month). |

I would personally go with Ati HD2900xt, because Crysis is said to take full advantage of what it has to offer. |
