They 4got my FX5900, but you don't hear me bitching and whining about it.
Besides they omitted a pure FX5900 because I own!!! Very Happy

i wasn't whining stupidus, i was stating why the omitted it. it would have whipped your sorry ati's ass even more than the FX5900XT did.

Just shut up FX and keep the thread on track moron! Or away and play your 'wondrous' card instead of playing it in 2D here.....yeah think on it and see if you understand the humour.
