Don't want ot burst your bubble but the powercolor cards in almost every case are trumped by the oem ATI built cards.

Powercolors are typically considered the economy verison of the regular ATI cards. Make sure to read the benchmarks for the card and compare memory bandwidth/etc to the regular ATI X800GT.

For the money you have, I'd rather throw it at this:

Now eVGA has a better rep than Powercolor and well the benchmarks speak for themselves.
