ATI Radeon HD 4000 Series discussion

[adamsleath]

Once larger textures need to be accessed, as is the case in Crysis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crysis or Microsoft’s Flight Simulator http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_simulator X, interface bandwidth becomes a crucial element. Any link width below x16 will noticeably limit these games’ playability. []

The answer, thus, has to be "yes": you want maximum bandwidth, and PCI Express 2.0, for all sorts of sophisticated 3D applications

although 8x8x surely enuf for older games.
er um P45 a single card mobo or low end CF then...?
