Lately I've been out of upgrading my PC. But I want some more performance on gaming like to run BF2 as smoothly as possible. So, I searched on CompUSA, my dad goes to USA from time to time and it's one of the cheapest sources we can go to. (if we lived there we could use newegg.com but that's not the case with us)

So I was searching at CompUSA.com and I think from what I heard GeForce 7800 and 7900 are the best cards of the moment?

Should I get this? GeForce 7600GT OC Video Card, PCI Express, 256MB GDDR3 or wait and save up for this: GeForce 7900GTX OC Video Card, PCI Express, 512MB GDDR3

Regards.
 
or you could wait and buy the dx10 cards when they come out. You dont want to buy used on the forums? How about eBay, i know lots of people ship international. Those cards on compUSA are so overpriced, it makes me cringe.
 
In many cases ( especially Oblivion ) the 512mb X1800XT is owning the 7800GT, 7800GTX and 7900GT.
 
So are you recommending me that card instead of GeForce?

About dx10 video cards? When are they expected and what are the prices? if they are too high I think I'll just go with one top of right now.
 
they are expected (i think) in a couple months and the price im sure is not going to be more than the top end right now i.e. the 7900gtx u listed.
 
If immage quality tickles your fancy then get the 512mb X1800XT, its about $250 max NIB. And in many cases it will put a whoopin on the 7800 series. Plus many people can OC the beasts to 700/800 which could best the 512mb 7800GTX
