Yes, welcome!

If I was you, I would not get the 512mb version, it costs more, it runs slower, and worst of all...it costs more!

As far as I know, ATI has not released any of the crossfire cards yet, and to use crossfire, you need a ATI Xpress chipset on your mobo, that has 2x 16x pci-e slots, and I have not seen any of those yet either.

Man, ATI has been lagging behind recently or what?
