new card under $175

[gx3n0]

i've been out of the loop for video cards for a while.... haven't kept up with anything.. i recently sold my system with a 9800 pro AIW...

my new system is

opteron 165
g skill extreme 1gb pc3200
asrock 939dual
samsung 160gb sata
seasonic s12-500



the only gaming i have in mind so far is WOW.. my 9800 ran that pretty well....


so far, i've thought about a 6600gt or a x800 but i'm not really sure

6800gs or an x850xt for 190~ (saw one on newegg for 184 this morning)

the 6600gt or x800 wont yield satisfactory results coming from a 9800 pro. best to go with the x850xt , or the GTO^2 and unlock the extra pipes. you can find more info on this in other threads

850xt for $175 before rebate. better than 6800gt, maybe equal to 6800 ultra after a wee bit of oc.
