Get one of them cheapo gf8800
Oh but I have, so time ago. Athlon64 3800+ 2,41Ghz.

Main reason I wanna change is there is no HDMI output on it. Cant get the dualview to work on my new Samsung LCD TV. Works on the VGA input, but not HDMI. Well it works, but then then my monitor wont work.

I've been running my GF8500GT since last christmas...not sure they sell it anymore but I bet if they do it'd be pretty reasonably priced.

Forget about PC and Windows, get a Macbook Pro instead. The number of maccing sceners has been climbing rapidly and it's just a matter of time before everyone else except Pommak has one.

rainmaker: I _might_ get a mac once they open the hardware for competition. I don't like paying more money to get last generation hardware and I also don't like the cult/religion that has risen around Steve Jobs. It reminds me too much of scientology because people spread blindly their things' "excellence" in every situation and I don't want to be involved with that kind of trolling.

On topic: get an nVidia for best compatibility. 8800s are definitely a good choice for their price point.

tFt. Does it have an IDEe port? otherwise you will be left with few choices in the first place. 8800gt is a bang for the buck, in DK you can get them as low as 1000 dkr.

rainmaker, so now mac are represented with what?, 5% of the sceners as opposed to it's former ZERO percent of the sceners? Mac is a bizzare cult that altso happens to sell technology with white cases with rounded corners.

the whole idea is that it's a mac because *they* made it.

i'm no mac-lemming (do own a regular macbook) but their hardware/os does have a certain sturdyness to it that makes most other hardware look and perform (and i don't mean perform as in millions of funyk polies per frame but rather build quality, battery power etc) flaky in comparison (especially laptops in the same price range). for the largest part this can be attributed to the fact that they carefully select components and build a few machines themselves.

i dont see how it would work if mac were a more 'open' standard. same goes for their os. lots more shit flying their way if everyone started running it on whatever hardware.

it would shatter "the ideal" :)

What niels said, and if you buy a mac soon after it's updated you tend to get pretty cutting edge stuff for a decent price. Problem is that they don't update it so often and the price stays flat, so after a while it becomes last gen at a high price.

all mac buyers should watch the Simpsons episod about "mapple".
added on the 2008-12-04 16:40:16 by Zest Zest
or, we could just assume that apple is a company selling computers and other stuff, and treat it like any other company selling stuff?
added on the 2008-12-04 16:58:26 by psonice psonice
think different : apple is selling hype and coolness and self-egotism, and that's the smartest marketing ever in our societies.
added on the 2008-12-04 17:06:28 by Zest Zest
Oh, they're not selling well build computers with a good OS anymore? The idiots are the people basing their decisions on the hype and other bollocks and not on the products, whichever way they go :)

that "joke" was as easy as it is untrue. as if every mac owner is interested in steve jobs and owns a pair of box framed emo glasses.. sigh.

to some people it's just impossible to, in moderation, like and use their products.

Jesus Christ, that "Mapple" joke was already fucking old 5 years ago. The Simpsons suck so much dick nowadays that they have to resort to cheap shit like that. Next up! Telling the world the Xbox is big and Bill Gates is really rich! Or maybe an episode about a coffee-place taking over! Called Storbacks!!! >_<

Fuck the Simpsons.

they did a starbucks gag a long time ago. but i wont be amazed if they revisit it.
added on the 2008-12-04 17:36:40 by superplek superplek
seriously guys do you really think that apple high prices are justified compared to the competitive products with same quality ?
