X1900GT or 7800GTX

[allies]

Hey guys -

This summer I built a computer for a friend of mine. C2D, 2 GB, all the goodies, except right now he's using a beater card. He had a budget of $1100, and right now we've spent $907. I'm offering him my EVGA 7800GTX (256MB 450/1200 version) for $193 just to get him an even $1100. I also told him to consider a X1900GT. He told me I could decide, because I let him know I was considering upgrading to a 7900GTO/X1900XT 256MB if I sold him my card. However I don't want to give him my card when he could get a X1900GT for ~$10 more if it's a better deal. What would you guys do?

Thanks in advance for the responses.

That's quite a conundrum...

Sell your GTX. You come first, not your friend.

Unless this is your best friend or really close friend....

Those cards are pretty close, but the 7800GTX is slightly faster in most benchmarks & you won't be able to sell it for much more then $193 anyway so I'd say its the winner.

Give him your 7800 GTX

It's a good deal for him, & for you

Sounds like a helluva deal (Getting ~$200 for your 7800GTX).
Buy him a couple of beers and a pizza. If he asks why, just say you felt like it. Should eliminate some of the guilt. If that doesn't cut it, enjoy your X1900XT.

And Congrats to n7 on hitting Lifer!
