I'm planning on upgrading my video card soon and subsequently my wife's card with my old one. I have a 7800GT and my wife's is a 5900fx. I have two options depending on how much money I can spend.
I am considering the EVGA 8800

To upgrade mine, then putting my 7800gt in hers. The EVGA one is about 200.
If I end up wanting to spend only about $100 on the card, would the 8600GT be an upgrade over my 7800GT? Or would I be better off just putting it in my wife's computer?

Note that when I upgrade my wife's card I'm also upgrading her to a AMD 64 3700+ i have in my closet and new mobo/ram. I'm kinda leaning towards not upgrading my card at this time because the 7800 has been good to me and works well for the games I play, and just upgrading my wife's. Thanks
