Started Playing fear on the below specs, and get decent performance out of 1024x768 with high details but no FSAA/AF and softshadows just destroys my video card, lol! My card is a vanilla 6600, not a GT variant and has sh***y RAM.
So I'm tempted in one of three directions:
1) 7600GT
2) X1800 GTO
or..
3) X800 GTO and see if I can mod it to 16 pipes.
How likely is it to get a card to flash/softmod to 16 pipes? Which manufacturers let there cards be flashed ?
A local retailer has X800 GTO cards cheaper than the above two so I might go this direction if it can be done reliably. My max budget is going to be around the £140 mark....
