The 7770 wont play the more intensive games maxed out, maybe medium settings, so it wont last very long for "future proofing." But if all you are doing is playing games like Diablo then you'll be fine.
Talk about underselling. From what I can tell, I wouldn't be surprised if a 7770 would be sufficient for this entire gen, if you don't need to run things at max. I'd much rather get a cheaper card and run things on lower settings, personally.

I only used one ASRock board before but it was the coolest shit.

I had some parts from an old Dell that had burnt up. It was a Pentium 4 Prescott with HyperThreading. The GPU was dead and it had DDR memory. I had a PCIE GPU and some DDR2 so I needed a "hybrid" board that could handle both generations.

Enter this:

I built my daughter a computer for $75.

"AGP"

Wow, my first Pentium III computer had an AGP slot. It had an 8mb graphics card and it ran Half-Life like a champ.

Well I was mostly referring to Treasure and Dragonsphere. I'm actually just about to start playing quest of the avatar for the first time.. just as soon as I finish the last 3 missions of the wing commander secret missions.

Boys it's beginning to look like EA's deal with the NFL is no longer exclusive. Although EA will still make NFL games another dev will probably jump in. If it's NFL 2k pc players could get a football sim.

Don't get your hopes up.

The NFL is posturing.

2K making football games again would be incredibly awesome. 2K5 was just the best.

EA has reported massive quarterly losses. In the past EA has had no problem proclaiming their deals with the NFL were exclusive. When asked directly about the new agreement being exclusive CFO Peter Moore said nothing.

EA will still make Madden games but I think their exclusive deal with the NFL is done.
