Hi.I could get this card: Galaxy nVidia GeForce 7900 GS
256MB PCI-E x16 Video Card With Zalman Heatsink for 120 pounds, do you guys think that this is a good deal? Is the card ALOT better than an XFX 7600GT XXX?

I've seen some benchmarks and the 7900GT runs very well, it runs quite alot better than the 7600GT as far as i know, i was also considering getting a 7600 but now im going for the 7900 as its not much more and its worth it.

Re: Graphics card decision

dont waste your money, direct x 10 will be out in february along with windows vista so any current cards will be obsolete and probably not worth very much

oh right i didn't know they are coming out so soon, but think of the cost of one of the decent DX10 cards? I'm sure they will be charging loads for them
