KRAM Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I bet the seller has one he would include with the card. Link to post Share on other sites
warchild119 Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 I bet the seller has one he would include with the card. the one you showed me is the 1295. and couldnt find any spec that says it support hdmi.on the other hand the 1296 does but it $100.00 dollars more.what a drag.building this pc is going cost me more than i thought.

KRAM Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 (edited) Seems newegg's info and pictures are incorrect. Straight from EVGA it says the 1295 supports HDMI and comes with the adapter. http://www.evga.com/products/moreInfo.asp?pn=017-P3-1295-AR Scrap that, just looked at the box content and it does not say anything about an HDMI adapter for the box content.

ctran503 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I dont think any cards come with an adaptor... you will have to buy them seperately... The only models to come with built-in HDMI are going to be the newest HD series from ATI...there are very few cards that come with anything HDMI Link to post Share on other sites
KRAM Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 My 017-P3-1296-AR came with a HDMI adapter. Not sure why the 017-P3-1295-AR does not have one, isn't it the same card, just not clocked as high? Link to post Share on other sites
warchild119 Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 My 017-P3-1296-AR came with a HDMI adapter. Not sure why the 017-P3-1295-AR does not have one, isn't it the same card, just not clocked as high? you think a 275 will be able to handle games blueray movies? Link to post Share on other sites

ShadowPredator Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I just started browsing this forum. Wow, there are a lot of double posts here and there. As the crowd says 5870 is the best way to go. If you want you could wait it out until the GT300 comes out and then see how it plays out, but unfortunately you will be waiting until possibly Q1, Q2 2010 for one. Link to post Share on other sites
