Since the card I have, an X800, went bad and that model is no longer available, I may get some replacement options.
If I get the full $200 credit, I'm thinking of an opportunity to upgrade.
Usage:
UT2004 and then later this year, UT2007. That's all I play.
For now my CPU is an A64 Venice OC'd to 2.3GHz.
Newegg currently has a few interesting options:
Sapphire Radeon X850XT if offered,
Gigabyte GV-RX80L256V which I think is an X800XL, if I'm required to get another Gigabyte.
If cash credit is offered, I will have a much wider field to choose from.
Anandtech has a Video Price Guide where the eVGA 7800 GT is being enthusiastically recommended for its value and performance. However, at the newegg website there's a number of criticisms posted by owners of this touted gamers' joy.
I'm awaiting your input.
Thanks.
