I think the vista Sp1 has leaked onto the net and has many bugs as its pre-release beta,don't know if any improvements have come.If anyone here has the service pack then it would have been illegally downloaded.Also check out my post in the gamerz section for the patch 1.4 for lost planet extreme condition.

i m thinking of buying this card(8400gs) and a Viewsonic widescreen LCD. any1 know d current price of 8400gs?

Also a few questions for choto cheeta>>
1. how do games look when run at 800*600 reso on ur Viewsonic widescreen monitor? coz 800X600 is not a widescreen reso.
2. did u run bioshock or any other gfx intensive games? can they be played at decent setting?
3. how do 4:3 reso videos look in widescreen? (coz i have some dragonballz dvdrips that r 4:3:()

^^How can you think of running DX 10 games on a GPU less than 8800 :? Well this is a card for the heck of it :| No offense .. but for a k or 2 I would buy 8600 :)

Hey man thanks for the review..... a pal of mine got a sparkle 840GS today..... and i checked it out thoroughly. The package was a piece of **** but the card aint. Ran COD 4 at 1024x768 with everything high except AA n AF...... frame rates were good enuf...just over 30.
Crysis ran with everything low with fps of roughly 30( with occassional falls upto 20)......
Trust me if someone has to get a card in limited budget...this aint a bad card
