Bleh, thats useless. What for? No game / program at this current need such a hugh amount of RAM [PC desktop]. Unless you're a professional graphic designer, then it would be exceptions.

I doubt that. For the mainstream gaming market, 256MB is more than enough atm. Actually there are already 512Mb ram video cards, but those are >1000 dollar'd High end workstations video cards.

Sxamiga, Saulin, and me currently have a Fx5900u 256mb. Sx and myself have a BFG FX5900u and Saulin has a MSI FX5900u(iirc).

The BFG fx5900u has a true Lifetime Warranty. Extending beyond the lifespan of the card's production cycle. Meaning, if the card somehow dies when the next few generations of Nvidia cards are produced, they'll either replace the card with another BFG fx5900u or replace it with the newer cards at a similar price. :guitar:

Other manufacturer's lifetime warranty only covers the card until it's out of production.

As for performance, the Fx5900u is exceptional in new/old PC and emulated games. Even with max AA+AF. Check out my screenshots in the screenshots section. The noise from the Fx5900u is nearly nonexistent in my rig. Hell, my CPU fan is louder and it's an Aero7+ 3500 rpm fan(not very loud either).
