There is a great deal on a eVGA 7900 GS.

eVGA has done well on my rebates before.
If you need a cheap gaming card this is the way to go.

I bought that card when it was about $180.00, and it was worth every penny. It's a strong performer is most fields. Paired with 1Gb of Ram, it can run Oblivion @ 1280X1024 at high settings bloom and 4xaa (no af in Oblivion).

We have pretty similar specs. To bad the stupid GeForce 8600s came out.

Hey don't worry, the 7900GS is often faster than the 8600's :D

Thats good. Thanks wolfram. Good thing my card is eVGA, when the summer strolls around I may step-up to a 8800GTS 320MB. Not that I'll need it.
