I normally buy whatever is the best bang for the buck video cards at the higher end of the video card spectrum, but in this case I need to keep the budget down. I built my roommate a SN41G2 about a year and a half ago and he was fine with the onboard graphics until now. He wants to turn on all the pretty stuff in AOE 3 and some other games he's checking out so I need to find him an actual video card. I was thinking of a 6600GT, but is there something else that should be just as good around $150 price point? If we can keep the price down I'll have him pick up a 1GB stick of ram as well, I'm guessing the dual channel memory controller only really helped with the onboard video anyways. Anyways, should I just have him get the 6600GT?
Thanks
