im looking at the geforce 8600 512 mb version, or the 8800 512 mb, is it a good choice? i dont really want to spend more than 250 dollars, in that ball park.

what is the longevity of this card? will it be out of date in a few months? what should i wait for?

thanks yall

and i have 350gb's of hdd

its running xp

is my pc ok for modern gaming? what needs an upgrade? i wanna get a new geforce card, around 200 bucks, maybe a lil cheaper, i have a 380 watt power supply. thanks everyone

do you think my pc will be able to run spore?

duo core 3.0's

2gb of ddr2 ram (planing on makin it 3 or 4 soon)

im not at the pc, but i know it has a 512 mb graphics card.

hd isnt a problem.

my main worrie is the graphics card, i wanna upgraid around teh holiday season anyway,

please give me your opinion if you think i can handle it! i wanna know if i should start making a fund already

so do you think spore is just a high tech toy? or a game that has the ability to revolutionize many parts in modern gaming, like the data distribution system, they practicaly had to made their own version of the internet for that.

personaly i think spore can change alot of generas, not so much in fps, but say for a stratagy game that takes place with hundreds if not thousands of players in a similar galaxy style game method. idk, might work, might now, give me your opinion
