its spelled dying mike
but lets face the facts, nvidia has been coming out with a whole bunch of..... you know. why do i want to spend like 500 to 600 dollars on a nvidia card when i can get one of ati's for like 200 dollars, and it runs the same, or a bit better then, then the nvidia card? nvidia just start mass produce garbage just because of the simple fact is that they could. well not anymore, ati just caught up, and blasted their way ahead of nvidia. i do not care what the statistics say about nvidia cards going up against ati's cards, the fact is, the average consumer will go for ati's cards, why? because they are cheap and runs well agaisnt nvidia's garbage.
o, did i forget, i AM a supporter of nvidia, but so far, what they came out with, thats a no no.
also, i would say you should go with a 9800gt, cheap and affordable, hell even a 8800 is still good, i have one, but they are about the same, so go with the 9800. but i would say go with a evga product, only if you are planning on keeping it for another 3 years or more, because they offer a life warranty for parts and such. but it does have less memory then the pny that you have on the wish list.

there is the link if you want to check it out. also cost a little tiny bit less then pny. but if you want to try out an ati card, you can, but should ask someone with experience with it first, i only one from an old computer i got from my cousin, so i cant tell you about it much :/ i think i might switch over soon
