yea i bought the 7800 gtx for less and i dont feel stupid. especially when my drivers arent crashing. AND YES, i do have an ati card in another 1 of my comps and their drivers suck.
You can get it even cheaper on pricegrabber. But now would be the worst time to upgrade your video card, as the R580 and G71 are about to come out. I bet the pirce went down because the R580 is coming soon.
