    i am after a new video card and i've been looking around all over the place and reading loads of reviews, seams that geforce 4 is as good as the high end CAD workstation cards at a lot of things.

    so maybe i might invest in one, but before i do does anyone have a a geforce 4 ti4600 yet?

    I can't wait to see the improvements that have been made. It's hard to believe they can get any better, but every year they find something else to make better.

    Yea, I wish I could have one as well...I think I only have Gforce 2. Nvida released them to early tough, people still havn't recovered from buying the GF3 if they would have waited a year I think they would have been more successful.

    bah. I can name three companies that broke the street date a while back. as well as some other locations online that was selling them.

    and no, I don't mean the MX versions. I mean the Ti4600.

    The MX (which is really a 3 mx, not a 4.) was released a while back. TI4600 was more recent on its release.

    try all the major online shops to see if you can get one

    here's a few
    http://www.jungle.com
    http://www.watford.co.uk
    http://www.dabs.com

    ps i'd never buy in pcworld as the average iq of the workers is about 30 and they have all the computer know how of some outer mongolia goat farmer

    thats if you try on the weekend. you might find that on weekdays they have their good technicians. its a good place for some hardware, but watford is pretty good for all the smaller things, and its close to me also, 10 minute drive.

    for example, i could only get a 1ghz p3 socket 370 from watford. pcworld dont sell them no more
