Cheetah Posted December 28, 2003 Share Posted December 28, 2003 Oooo. A mystery graphics card worth $2000. No name, no description, not sold in any normal stores Sure I've heard about it! I'm afraid you got to be a bit more specific before anyone can give any sort of resonable reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayonara Posted January 2, 2004 Share Posted January 2, 2004 There's plenty of uber-expensive hardware one can buy if one has the cash. Surprisingly () the domestic market is not the only one driving the progress of computer technology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossoi Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 Indeed - I've recently installed some sound cards in PC's at work that cost around £3,000 each. I've also installed one £7,000 graphics card in our graphics department. Expensive hardware is very common but isn't advertised in the same way as the standard stuff. I don't think they are kept secret and only sold to those who are 'connected'. If I made a piece of hardware I would want everybody to buy it!

fafalone Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 Conventional advertising would be a waste of money for the 7,000 priced video card and the likes, because their target audience is so small and centered exclusively in high end studios.

amoda Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 20k pc? What in the world are you planning to do with a 20k pc or even a 2k graphic card? You can get ones that play basically any game out there for $250. A 2k graphic card wow. Do you even know the capabilites of such a card? wow.......wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossoi Posted January 24, 2004 Share Posted January 24, 2004 Very expensive graphics cards are usually expensive because they have video inpute/output capability. The actual display adapter is often no better than a normal video card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted January 24, 2004 Share Posted January 24, 2004 And, if you have a crummy monitor, it's worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
