Ok well, I just purchased a hard drive from Newegg, and it has cut into my funds. I am no longer looking for such a high end card as a 9800GTX, I currently have 120 in paypal. (Waiting ;)) I'm looking along the lines of an 8800GT G92 512mb, or something around that area. I know it's a little low, but then again with the new cards coming out in about a week or so, I figure someone with a decent gaming card is going to want to either upgrade, sell, or trade the card, With a good 120 in paypal, someone can go that route and soften the blow of the upgrade bug :D. I'll probably purchase a 4850 a few months down the year, since I usually just game in BF2, CSS, Halo (lol), and COD4. These games are NOT VERY graphic intensive (maybe cod4 a little) so I think the SMART thing to do is to purchase a card that will run these games reasonably high, with maybe 2x or 4x AA, probably no antriscopic filtering.

So if I've helped you out before, and you think you can give me a decent hookup, please PM me, or post your offer, and I will return the favor whenever I have something you would need :)

Yeah I know it is, I've had a 2900 before, but I believe the power draw (IMHO) was not worth the amount of money I payed for it, I saw a significant increase in the light bill running the rig almost 24/7, thank you for your suggestion :)

9600GT by LEadtech is a very good card. I believe it beats out a few of the 8800's, at a much lower cost. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814122049

Thanks for your offer, but I currently have an 8800GT 512mb G92 on hold. :D and guess what, 120 shipped! lol, either I go with it, or I'll just wait out the massive price drop which is less than a week away!

Thank you again for your posts noneed4me2, jonnyferrari, and flcl (funny show btw) :rockout:
