Let me say this, it was WELL worth the money*. The only hard-core** 3D accelerated game that I play is Battlefield 1942. Gawd dam, it made such a difference. I can now turn everything up to full detail and run the game smoothly without any frame drops.
*I paid $173 for mine and now after 2-3 weeks it drops to $133. Dammit I'm pissed. Prices are according to Pricegrabber.com or Newegg.com
**I know, BF1942 isn't the more hardcore card user since there are games such as Unreal 2, Quake 3, etc etc that are the games used for benchmarks.
I did a page here on my website just to help you guys and gals out if you need to upgrade.

Wow sorry you got so raped on the price, but hey if your happy with the product you should feel that you paid what its worth and not dwell at all over that.
However, Battlefield uses the Unreal 2003 engine, and the ut2k3 engine is the most advanced 3d engine out today if i'm not mistaken much more so than say quake 3! as you mentioned.
HL2 is comming out soon and so is that Stalker game and then to be owned by all Doom3 will be relased and Quake4 using the doom3 engine so there will be plent of games to use your card to the fullets, but don't dog bf graphix they are top notch.
