Suggest a gfx

Post by GrimStoner »

Hi

Anyone care to suggest a PCI-E gfx card? Got about R2.5k, and I'd like to buy at Rectron or Axiz; they stock XFX, Gigabyte, Asus, Sapphire and Leadtek.

Also... I remember last time (when I switched from ATI to NVidia), that it was preferably to format, because of driver conflicts etc. Is it necessary on Windows 7, or can I just uninstall the NVidia drivers?
