This is intresting but what would the diff be between thoes?

The difference will come down to price and performance. The 7800GT will offer significantly better performance, but is obviously more expensive. If you can't afford or don't need to step up to that performance, just get the X800GTO2 like others are suggesting. However, CoD2 (awesome game btw) with eye candy (aka AA+AF) enabled can really push a card, so a 7800GT would be recommended for that.

And, again as other people have already mentioned, I don't think you would need SLI that much. Besides, your PSU may not be able to handle it.

Have fun gaming with your new card, whichever one you may choose.

LOL so i went from a $200 budget to looking at they 7800GT LMAO figures. I plain on messing with my computer and the ram here some time today but that means i'll have to mess with my OC as well. Thank you every one for all of you comments and ideas. I'll keep you posted on what i get and how it works out, of course if you want to keep posting ideas I would not care at all thanks again.

EDIT: Now the next question. What the heck is the differance between these? Which should i get? If it makes a differance I have to use VGA connections not DVI. Adaptor is fine though.
