The GTX 280 outperforms any single card on the market. I also think it might be a little overpriced but it is still a very impressive card.chandlerr_360

You can get a 9800GX2 with 1 gig ram for the price of a GTX 280. thats what im doing. I myself prefer nvidia's cards over ATI's.

Althought actually getting the 9800GX2 to run will be a bit pricey...

Go to NCIX.com, go to the left and hit PC configurator, then there will be a list of pcs under "Buy a PC", go next to it and hit "PC builder"

Select the cheapest one, remove antivirus and office package (about 300 dollars off the price right there) and hit the specs you want. I reccomend the one above that i just showed you.

Whats your budget? if it is 2,500 or around that. you can get



64 bit operating system (Vista Home Premium)

a quad core (Q6600 @ 2.4)

a 9800 GX2 with 1G ddr3 memory

4gigs of DDR2 memory

22in monitor

mouse, keyboard

780i SLI motherboard

logitech 5.1 sound system

320gig hard drive

600W power supply

with a case that looks like an alienware, but its not...its really cool..

for around 2grand. Thats without shipping and handling, and taxes.

Im expecting it to come to around 2,300 with everything.
