I usually pay no more than $150.00 for cards. These are usually the cards that were the best at one time and now are sold off cheap because something else is out and at a bigger price tag. Currently I have the 6200OC-256MB Nvidia card. I'm happy with it. Anyway, no GF8800 for me at $599.00, my wife would string me up!!! I feed my wife and kids on that money for a month. Basically DX10 will be a Vista based program. OK, fine by me as I like XP and I'm sure my current CPU will be on my desk for a few years to come.
