My friend is building a new computer and I was thinking about selling him my 8800gt for 100 so I can spend about 150 on a new video card. Is this worth it? Essentially, it would be 50 bucks for an incremental upgrade.

What video card should I get?

8800GT----4850 isnt worth it IMO. That would be the card that falls into the $150 price range. If you would be willing to spend a little extra, the 260/4870 would impress you alot more.

I think if you game high rez, you would notice the difference going 4850 from 8800gt. but at low rez you might not notice much difference. Although $100 is a fair offer, seen it sold for about that on ebay nowadays. If you want sell it off and get something for Xmas maybe they'll have new cards on sale then.
