A few gaming goodies questions.

1) Does anyone know where I could buy the Nvidia BFG Tech GeForce GTX 295 graphics card? (yes I am building a gaming machine) I am looking for the one that has the 2 DVI ports and the HDMI port (real port, not done through an adapter). Link below to a review and specifics of the card.

2) I want to buy a 22 inch 3D computer monitor. Does anyone have either the Viewsonic or Samsung 3D monitor and if so what are your thoughts on it as a regular monitor and also as a 3d/ nvidia glasses monitor? Links to monitors below. Also if you know of any 22 inch 3D monitors please let me know.

getting the GTX295 now is not a smart idea. wait for fermi. you will be able to get a DX11 card, or you will be able to get the GTX295 for cheaper.

I cold be wrong however, I beleive BFG cards come with a deal where if within 100 days a newer card comes out you can returen it and pay the difference for the newer/ better card. Also I am sure when the time comes I would be able to sell the 295 GTX for at least $400. To the human eye what will be noticable in the newer Nvidia cards that are coming out?
