I went with a 9800GTX, happy with it so far. Pretty cool piece of hardware. Much quieter than my 7800GT. The thing is as long as my forearm, luckily I had room in my case for it. Has 2 power outlets on it, bought a Rosewill 500w power supply to power it and everything else. Running FarCry maxed out just fine (if that is saying anything), newer games coming for the holidays. One problem I've been having with it is that on startup sometimes the monitor won't turn on, maybe the card isn't getting a signal from the BIOS? Usually fixed with a hard restart or 3. Great thread, thanks.
