    Advice - Desperately need to Upgrade my Video Card

    Sweet! Thanks for the help. I ordered it from newegg. After reading this review, I had no doubts. It rates it as the quietest and most cost effective card they've reviewed. And that's at $170, not $109 AR. Not to mention the OC potential. Thanks again. :)

    Advice - Desperately need to Upgrade my Video Card

    Thanks. Looks like a nice card. It's a pci-e 2.0 card. Will it still work with my BioStar mobo that I bought a couple years ago? My current card is pci-e 1.0.

    Thanks for the info. No, I'm not running any other firewalls. I already uninstalled the nvidia FW because it wouldn't let me connect at all.

    Thoughts on this final setup?

    Granted, but it's getting rave reviews all over the net. And the only brightness problem I've heard about it is that it's too bright out of the box and needs to be turned down.

    Good Price for PC for a light gamer?

    Wall7486, I like it. Will I only need all of that stuff, or will I need to spring for new ribbon cables and whatnot too? Do you know if that is usually included with all of the parts?
