HetalDP 947 Report post Posted March 18, 2008 You can use CrossFire Technology (CrossFire means combining 2 Graphics Processor Power to Achive Faster Graphic Processing measn Dual Graphic Processor) in 780 we can use on Integrated and one addon graphic to Double the Graphics speed, Intel is still thinking on issue NVidia have same Technology named SLI (Symetric Link Interface) AMD 780 also have DirectX 10 and HDLC so watcing BlueRay Disk on Sempron (Comparable to Intel Celeron) can also be done.

GT is little cheaper and comes with 256, 512, 1GB Memory. GTS comes with 320, 640MB memory u cannot get a graphics card with 2BG memory system memory 2gb Buy memory module which are officialy tested and recomended by the mother board manufactor, the list will be available with manufactor's motherboard webpage. if u are planning to go for 2GB, donot buy a single 2BG module, insted buy 1GB x 2 memory modules and connect them in dual channel mode.
