so, IT CAME!

well the current flagship models...

Nvidia:
9800 GTX
GTX 260
GTX 280 (Fastest card available atm.)

ATI:
4850 (Comparable to the 9800GTX.)
4870 (Faster than GTX 260 but slightly slower than the 280 at $150 less. When i say slightly i mean by a couple FPS is it slower. IMO its not worth the extra $150.)

Right now i would go for a 4870, i really would. It seems to be a great card and it proves itself to me every day. I can't justify spending an extra $150 for an extra couple FPS.

ok thanks.
they have good prices too , about $150 cheaper then what i bought my 8800 for
