That'll probably get fixed when the drivers for the 2600 series matures, Gimpy. Those cards are still relatively new. Either that, or you need to do some more tweaking with the settings in the Catalyst Control Center.

I don't think NVIDIA released 1Gb GT card... GT is 512mb. And this is more then enoph for SH4, GT rocks !! Check the card specs again and check nvidia.com.

GTS/512mb is the "old" fellow (a previous GTS fix) and is better CPU then GT for bigger screens and FPS eating games. If you have the money, get the GTS.

8800GTS 512 is my recommendation and preferably a manufacturer that offers a trade up/ step up program when the new 9800's come out at the end of this month/early april.
