yeah that's what i was thinking to...i said that card right away. just wanted to get some more imput. thanks for the post. what i think i'll do is write down alot of cards from tom's and look at benchmarks then search to see which is the best for the price range. lots of work but i can still do it...i'm still open to oppinions.

I have the 9800pro and it does great in my system.

i get around 20100 for my bench in 3dmark01

and over 6000 in 03

the pro is pretty good. its 256-bit, 8 piplelines, and no lag on doom 3. lol
