Wouldn't you know it, everytime I upgrade to a new PC, a new better card is upcoming within months. Oh well, I get plenty of use from my GeForce Ti 4600 even still today, so I assume I'll be using the Radeon X1900 XTX years from now as well...

How ya doing, buddy?

Thing is, I don't know if I understand PCs enough to upgrade the card regardless. If I somehow learn the basics and I can do so, well, I'd probably do that if a dual card setup is needed down the road, but for now it's fine...

There's nowhere I can't reach.

In what way are their drivers broken?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Hmmm, thanks for the info! Will start reading up on ATI cards and their drivers. Shouldn't be a problem I think, I learned to use Nvidia'a drivers and updates, I'll do the same with ATI's...

Though, I never bothered to uninstall previous versions of Nvidia's, so that is one thing to change for ATI's once I need to update it.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I guess most just assume it'll overwrite the previous version. Can't recall what my excuse is/was, haven't updated my video card in about a year or so...

I was speaking idiomatically.
