hehe well that's a good strat Gamma haha the cheapest X1900 XTX here in the netherlands is 515 Euro's so it's not too shabby about the same as a Voodoo5 5000 AGP

@ Ranner

hmm that  is very bad news then Ranner, I have heard that from a friend here too , damn, never knew that that would really happen  So Western Digital would be the wisest move then I ashume or Samsung?
Just want to move as far away from Maxtor as I can, just to be honest.

If you want to use the X1900 series in CrossFire a CrossFire Edition card is recemmended, only all cards to X1800GTO don't need a CrossFire Edition card with Catalyst 6.5 and up.

but what you also can do is wait for ATi X2800XTX and use your X1900 series card as a PPU instead since it can doe 375 Giga flops per sec an Ageia PPU card only can do 100 Giga Flops per sec hehe.

you use the X2800 XTX for your main VGA and use the X1900 XTX as PPU aka Physics Processing Unit there by you would have a 80% increase in gameplay than by useing a crossfire setup hehe.

this is because that otherwise the CPU would have to do all the map loading and Physics and when you have an ATi based RAddy as a PPU the CPU would only have to load the maps of the level to the VGA and the X1900 XTX as PPU would only do the physics.
