Hi Cath - yes it works great!! - I just installed 64 bit vista ultimate and after a nightmare with Rocketraid drivers this is also now working

[Imagine Video]

Yeah look good! on the specs But I prefere SCAN for my componants! But if your happy with ebuyer then go for it!

I will be getting the same board But a saphire version of it!


DID IT WORK????

This should work looking at the specs - be carefull though as some of the 3rd party cards like HiS Radeon take up 2 slots as the fan is so big!

Need to make sure its a proper ATI branded item - as the picture

I am looking at the HD3850 512MB myself at 98.00 from SCAN

Hi Cath

Don't know if this might be of interest, Ebuyer have an HD3850 512MB for £60 - I'm now very tempted by this model....

Yes this is actually what I was looking at. The size however is a concern - I do have the slot next to the current card empty at the moment but I would prefer a single width card as I do not want to put a source of heat right next to my raid controller.

ATI’s 1950 series GPU is a fully DirectX 9 compliant part that supports Shader Model 3.0

it should be ok

Because of no pixel shader 3.0 support, it's time to update my graphics card (an ATI X700 with 512mb). I've found an X1950 Pro 512MB GDDR3 PCI-E for less than £50 which seems quite reasonable. Is anyone using this card with Edius version 5 and if so are GPU fx working well?
