I have searched multiple websites and mags, and still haven't decided, which GPU! I have narrowed it down to a few. The 8800gts would be my choice but $259 is out of my budget, 260-280 INCLUDING the purchase of a GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3R LGA 775 Intel P35 Mainboard (thanks for the advice). Heres my options,
-MSI NX8600gt (560/1600) ($139)
-Saphire x1950xt ($179.99 (A bit over budget))
-Saphire x1950pro ($136.99)
I slightly prefer NVidia, but not enough to risk performance. DirectX 10 gives amazing detail and surely al games will eventually be DX10 only (then DX11). I cannot afford to be shelling out on a new GPU in a years time, my budget is cr*p. Also I will be overclocking to get the best performance. So very simply, which one!
