He's just giving the dude options. It can't hurt.
And yeah, I would still say he should get one of the cards I listed. The core 216 I listed is of comparable brand quality, the same price (cheaper after rebate), and comes with both farcry 2 and cod 5. The other, the 4870 1GB, is a slightly better card, and it also comes with a game while being cheaper than the evga superclocked card you listed. I don't know either way on the power color brand. I just was trying to find the best deals to help with his budget. If he would like a different brand, he can go on the egg and look.
