ISO New $100 or so Card

Hi Folks,

I like the x800, does what I need it to do but it is now 15 months old and this (third one) is now starting to artifact like the prior two that were RMA'd and I'd like to replace it before it fails. I'll be using this for WoW, Ultima Online, various Office 07 stuff, Dreamweaver and Photoshop. Also some movie making and the like.

I am currently running XP home on an AMD 3000 on an Epox 939 board, would like to upgrade to Vista 32 and maybe eventually an Intel-based system.

I am confirmed Newegg so any pointers or advice would be MUCH appreciated.

Me again - How about this eVGA?

A 7600GT would be a great option for you.

Another upgrade I might look at is maybe investing in 2 GB if you haven't already considered it. Vista loves to eat up your RAM.
