New desktop built -- have a question though.
I finally built my new desktop which is:
Intel Q9550 cpu Asus P5Q Pro mainboard 6GB ram 30GB SSD2 drive for OS (which loads Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit in about 5 second) 2x500GB 32MB cache drives for data a wank Radeon X1650 video card Everything is running fast as hell.. Vista rating is 5.9 (the highest rating at the moment) for everything but that video card which gets a 4.9... It's also only DX9 and has 256MB on it (I got it dirt cheap). I need to buy a new video card, what do you guys recommend? I'd like to go with Nvidia and would use it for gaming + HDTV. I won't spend more then $200 on a video card. Any recommendations? I heard the Geforce GTX card roast the 8xxx/9xxx line. And that the 8800GT/GTS roasts 9xxx.. Any truth to that? ___________________________________ NEW ADDITION!!

the gtx 200 lines are awesome, im thinking of treating myself to one this christmas to replace my decent 8800gt.
and i was thinking along the lines of 200 doll too so i was looking at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814130370 or shell out an extra 10 bucks, but also comes with a 10 doll mail in rebate so effectively the same thing http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814130373 (its factory overclocked by about 50 mhz) both have awesome reviews and should last a while ![[Image: sleepysheepcopy.jpg]](http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c74/resol2kaerf/sleepysheepcopy.jpg)

That GTX 260 is looking pretty sweet.. Maybe I'll have to go for that. Just want something that gives me awesomeness but without costing as much as my whole desktop!
