By far. The 5770 can max most games out with ease. Your 4550 can't even come close.


ice445, any headsets left?

Just checking back today after I stopped checking the auctions a few days ago. I see nothing has changed and actually worsened. This whole thing was crap and I didn't even have enough points to participate. A shame, this could have actually been fun for a majority of the people. I barely had over 6100 points so I was basically given the finger. Thanks Bioware for making this an exciting "fan loyalty" event.


The Venting thread is here


honestly, after looking in the thread at your link and a few others, I don't know which is worse...the people that whine incessantly at being left out in the cold, or the people so quick to defend Bioware til death do they part.

It's one thing to speak your mind I guess and recognise it for what it really is....

damn I must be moving past the wise ass tired stage straight into the cranky annoyed at loud noises and bright lights stage.

I do like ATI / AMD. And upgrading the video card on this system would be one step in a big upgrade overall...
it'd take money and more time to get the entertainment center DVR built but it'd still be a start.

The laptop would be better, but I bet people are awake and aware now.


Well, think hard and long if that last card comes up. If you decide to skip it, make sure you can get that laptop. =]


I can't really be sure at this point, now can I? :P


Eh go for the Graphics Card.

We'll cheer you on whichever one you go for.  With some luck, laptop will come before the card.

Let me check. I'll also check how many HDD's are left.

my 1 gig 4870 still pumping out the love for my games, gonna wait until the 7900 series before I look to upgrade again.  Still the 5770 is quite the bang for the buck card right now  and the lower power draw makes it a candidate for crossfire

This should be the penultimate Hard Drive.

I'm so glad I nabbed the drive when I did. At today's token exchange, I wouldn't be able to get it at all.

Ideally the laptop will come up before the graphics card, surely.



And... I don't need a 1 TB drive - that's fairly cheap nowadays.

Lol 12k for comics

The Art Book version included appears to have been a limited edition that's selling for around $100 on the secondary market. So I figure it's just as good as winning a lithograph pack or video card... (or making back the majority of the moneys I've spent on Bioware stuff in the past year :blink:).

There's just an extra step involved :pinched:

I would have rather taken a Mass Effect shirt pack - but I think they're all gone and I wouldn't be surprised if it goes for 13k anyway if there's one left.

Anyway, good luck to everyone in the last few hours of the auction. I'm getting some sleep.

(the below anime girl dance does not, for once, go to my referall link - it goes to the full version of the song/dance. It will blind you with its Japaneseness)

Does any one know how to use a graphics card as a Physx Card does it have to be the same as your primary video card?

the 1 tb hd is a great media storage device, but I'd drop a raptor for running the software....ah who the hell am I kidding if I had the tokens it would fit nicely as a third drive.

That's good, probably made everyone here a bit more optimistic. Too bad about Merin, I know he was really looking forward to that Posted Image

This auction is like survival of the fittest.

Morrigan approves +9

Oh don't mean it's good, just rather dog eat dog :P I gave up after seeing the first few auctions.

I believe he has a shot at the laptop, and can take the last ATI easily if he wanted.

How many tokens does he even have? The last ATI went pretty high up there.
