If you're running PCI express and you need a new video card:

Geforce 7900 GS 256 DDR3

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8003732&type=product&id=1155072371459&ref=06&loc=01

I just put this in my computer, and it is a hell of a buy for the money. I've seen these go for over $100 more (different brand, same specs).

That is a good price, regular all around the USA is still pretty much $200

I'm waitin for the AGP 6800's to come down in price - yes, I'm running AGP, lol.

Otherwise, that's a great deal there.

I'm running a 6800gs and love it. I can play Battlefield 2142 with no problems . Now the new 8800gtx looks sexy .

GDDR2 512MB instead of GDDR3 256MB but otherwise same specs

The amount of ram on Video Cards doesn't really matter when you are going for a budget card, and even on higher end cards large amounts of video ram still isn't being fully utilized. However, the GDDR3 would provide a small improvement in performance compared to GDDR2.

That card is quite decent to be fully honest... compaired to it's similar nvidia cousins.

I bought most of my stuff for my latest CPU off of zipzoomfly.com they have some good prices IMO. usually better than tigerdirect and newegg. I tell you i love slickdeals.net. If you don't have a time limit on buying stuff they always telling you about nice deals.

I am running a 7900GT and I play Call of Duty with the screen resolution @ 1680 X 1050 with antialiasing @ 8X and anisotropic filtering @ 16X.With image settings @ high quality.And it runs smooth as silk with no lag...
So the 7900GS should be a great card for the money..
