BFG Tech 512MB 7900GT

512MB of memory on a video card is still a waste of money, so why get that unless you've already chosen the very highest performing parts for every other item in your computer?

I'm checking out this video card. It seems like a good card, but I'm no expert. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. 😀

It's performance should be just under that of a 7900GTX. Excellent card you've picked out, but for the same money I would get an X1900XT or just buy a 7900GT and save yourself ~$100 for almost the same performance. You won't be disappointed no matter what you decide to do. They're all great cards. You might wait around for the X1900XT 256MB to come out also. That is going to be sub $300 and have almost the same performance of the X1900XT. So many choices!

I have an E6600 and 2G of XMS2 Corsair RAM, I'm pretty positive that my Video Card (an MSI 6800GT) is the bottleneck in my system when it comes to 3D performance.

Thanks for the advice folks, I greatly appreciate it! 😀 I think I'll wait for another few weeks and then snag something. 🙂
