Nope I haven't.. But it doesn't matter, I'm getting the FX next week :)

Strange how sellers can have a great influence on you :) I got the Radeon 9600 SE. First of all, the Radeon 9800 was sold out. Second, the Radeon 9800 would be more powerful than my CPU so that wouldn't work out either :o I've had bad experiences with nVidia, so the ATi card was worth a try. Plus, my GameCube also makes use of ATi, and it hasn't let me down either :% If I don't like it I can always return it, no big deal :> I'm gonna install it tonight and see how FS2004 fares with it.

EHM-1328 Willem:

Gizmo, a sideways swipe at my "I've had nowt but trouble with ATI" mayhaps :D (apart from the one in my 'Cube too...)

The only reason I say I've had problems with ATI is because of my mobo.  I had it mostly working with my old mobo, but the MSI mobo I have now just refuses to work with it, and I have a suspicion it's something MSI have deliberately done (they along with Gainward were the only manufacturers that didn't jump over to ATI when the NV38 <GeForce FX> came out and wasn't as good as the R400 <Radeon 9600>...)

But yes, I agree people tend to make choices early on and then jump on any excuse that reinforces their choices.
