Anyone know of a good pci express vid card? Looking to buy the best so dont let me down. Comp is a pentium d 3.2 and upgraded to the max just no vid card....yes I know GO ATHLON! I do other things though all at once that I dont need the comp freezing up on me but I like games as well.....im thinking ATI V7100 256Mb card....just it was like $600 bucks :/ I need it to have a connection to the tv as well. Secondary thoughts are x800 xl or a x800 xt both 256 mb both about 300-400 bucks. Any better ideas?
Nevermind kinda read your alls speal in another post (ati vs radeon)

As I suggested to Sardaukar, go grab one of those Saphhire Radeon x800 GTO² that can easily and with a 100% success rate be converted from a 12 piper to a full x850-like 16 piper. That's the best bang for your buck EVER on an ATI card...
Here's the link to the mod:

Just saved you upto 300$ US on that... and I'm not subbed *hint hint* .
Enjoy!
