Just happened to stumble across this article and wondered what y'all might think for lower priced graphics cards for poor people like me..... :oops:

Oh well, guess nobody liked that idea so I went middle of the road with a PNY 9600 GT http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6814133239

Would rather have an 8800 but at this point a card is a card and anything's better than the onboard 6100.
Should be in by Friday so I can play after my CT scan on Saturday... . Gonna buy GRiD this weekend too I think. Kind of a free paycheck........
