Should I buy the Nvidia Geforce GTX 295 graphics card?
Two months ago, I bought an XFX Geforce 9800GX2 card. As the price for this card is very expensive, I was lucky and got it for £230 (brand new) from Amazon. I could have gone for the Geforce GTX 200 single series cards but I wanted a card with two GPU's. So, I bought the 9800GX2. I didn't know that Nvidia is releasing another new dual GPU card until now. I had some doubts whether I should keep the 9800GX2 or spend over 300 to but the new one.
I just want a good dual GPU card to play the latest games with no problems, that's all.
If anyone can give me some advice or help with is problem, I would be much appreciated.
Thanks 
Keep the one you have now. I'm not gonna lie, the GTX 295 is SO nice, but it's not worth it, considering your graphics card is really good anyways.
The point I'm trying to make is... the human eye can only see up to 60fps, anything higher than that, and it's pointless. People boasting about having 220fps in counter strike are just saying "hey I'm a rich spoiled n00b" lol. But yeah, if you're playing Crysis, maybe the GTX 295 is what you need to get 60fps in high mode...
Personally, I just play CS, Crysis' requirements are way too high for me.
Good luck! Think about it this way... If you buy it now, you'll probably wish you had that money later down the road. If you don't buy it now, you'll have the money to buy whatever you want later, and you'll be happy you didn't get it. Also, new cards come out every few months, the newer model will be out soon lol.
