I wouldn't be purchasing a GeForce FX 5900 right now. NVIDIA shipped a cubic asslode of faulty ones out to various big-name manufacturers. I got two of them and had to RMA both of them back. It's a great card if you get a good one, but good luck if you try for it.

Under $200.00? I'd get a Radeon 9800 128 MB. The cheapest ones are right under two hundred bucks. That, or save some money and get a GeForce 4 TI 4600 or Radeon 9500 Pro.
