Count me in for sure!

Pick me pick me

1. I'd replace the 4600+ I currently have in my system with the 5000+. I'd save the 4600+ for a HTPC I plan on building this summer. 2. Phenom

Obsidian did KOTOR2, not Bioware.

Well, I ended up getting more money for my birthday than anticipated, so I splurged and got an 8800GTS 320mb.

I wish I actually had more hours at my summer job before heading back to college, then I could actually afford an 8800GTS. If it helps at all my price ceiling is at about $200. That is unless I could sell my 6800GT...hmmm.

If having my specs help, I have: AMD Athlon64 X2 4600+ AM2 2GB of OCZ Platinum XTC DDR2-800 RAM Aerocool ZeroDBA 620w PSU Samsung SyncMaster 940B 19" LCD Monitor (That should be enough to figure out which video card would suit me best I would think) Any links to reviews pitting the 8600GTS...

I think I'm going to snag the Sapphire X1950XT 256mb that is on newegg. $150 after rebate is too good of a deal to pass up.

Is there a big performance difference between the 256mb and 512mb versions of X1950pro? I'm thinking I'm going to buy one of these bad boys, as I don't really have the money for a 8800GTS. Right now I only have a 19" Samsung 940B which runs at 1280x1024.

Is there an exact date for when the 226CW will be available to purchase? I'm looking to get a 22" LCD for gaming as well.

My 6800GT is starting to show its age, so I would like to upgrade it. Unfortunately with my current summer job I'm not getting very many hours so money is a little tight. Would the 8600GTS be a worthwhile upgrade over my current card, or should I just hold out for something else. $150 is nice...

I was just curious as to what the situation was currently with Linux and recording/tuning HD? I know CableCARD is the only real way to do it, but if I remember correctly these only work on Windows. Also wasn't there some nonsense about CableLabs having to certify the device you are using it...

Bump - YGPM (Though I see the case is already pending)

You could hold out for the 8600GTS and 8600Ultra, as they're rumored to be at $150 and $170, respectively.

Sorta related, but I've started to stay away from Asus after they screwed me on my Z71V laptop. The laptop had a pretty common problem with its battery being defective, and my first one did fail. They replaced the first, but the second time it happened they refused to replace claiming the...
