Take it from a non-expert Red Hammer has given you the best advice.

Except I would go for the ATI card, because you already have one in the X1400 range anyway and the Radeon X1950XT Pro is a great card for DX9c ...

Go to Pricewatch.com and type in his two choices for video cards (one at a time) in the search engine ... go down the list they give you and pick the retail version of the card ... not the oem. Click on order and it will be there in three or four days.

I agree New Egg is the best on the west coast and you don't have to pay state tax, because you live in Washington (not California).

You don't sound to savy on how to install it ... so find a local in the yellow pages to install it for you ... while he is installing the video cars have your computer cleaned up (fans, cards, interior) get the latest drivers scan for spyware, defrag ... etc.

Come home a happy man ... :p

Don't forget to ask him how to stay up to date on drivers, etc.

Stop talking about croaking ... I'll see you back here when SH5 comes out ... isn't this a blast watching everyone jump around like a bunch of indians on the war path ... Oh yeah I've been through three of these come out parties now and I can't wait for the next one.

Your alright chief I don't care what your wife said about you
