    Revisiting an Old Topic: Graphics Cards and Neighborhood Views

    Look!!!!!! Hubby bought me a GeForce 6600 1 gig turbo-something or other!! Look at how pretty my neighborhood is!! The house with no roof is the lot I am playing at the time I snapped these. :) I might just keep my Hubby after all. ;)

    Congrats, Kristal!

    (Just don't put too many decorations in your neighborhood. Even with a 6800 it doesn't like rendering it quickly so moving around to look at the neighborhood can be like molasses if you've got too many trees. The 7800 does much better though.)

    Yeah, I found that out. So much for all the pretty trees and such. LOL I was going for a rural look to my neighborhood. And, yep, every time Hubby gets me a new graphics card, one comes out bigger and better. I know, the 7800 has been out a few months. But last year at this time Hubby bought me the 5500, and everyone was talking about the 6800.

    I'm always behind the times!!! LOL
