    You might as well buy one now. If you keep waiting around for the next big thing with graphics cards (which is always seemingly about a fortnight away), you'll never get around to buying one.

      Oh ya. Very few games will even use Direct X 9. Even Doom 3 is Direct X 8. So dont go for the newest...DX 9.1 support. No biggie,

      hell, my labtop has an Mach64 mobile video card (4mb). Its DX expired at 6. Still plays Hearts of Iron tho.

        DirectX 10 ain't out for 2 more years, DirectX 9 will be here to stay for a while.

          Yeah, the fan on my GeForce DDR has been dodgy for some time now but there have been no problems...

            The best sub 100 usd is either an Radeon 9100 or GF FX 5200 but the 5200 is not available yet and it might not be available in next few weeks

              Actually I´m waiting for the money not the card (If I´m lucky next week :hope: ) and in the meantime I try to find out what to buy.

              Provost: I think that that´s what happened to me but here is summer now so...

              OneFITG: Here probably won´t be available for more than that anyway

                Yeah, I will be looking at a new system at some point so I will come to you with suggestions...not like I particularly need the advice about construction but just for a thumbs up and a bit of personal experience with certain stuff...I haven't put a computer together for over a year now you see
