ati (oem) radeon 9800 128mb dual display tv-out dvi agp8x $349

Buy this, flash to Pro, and overclock.

Sapphire Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB DDR OEM $499 at CC

Saves you roughly $150.

I *think* the card has enough power for Duke3d, Dempsey

But I'd wait until the 9800 SE's are more common. Right now only Dell is making them (though, I think Newegg is selling them). Then you could do the mod I did or (at the very worst) get an excellent video card.

a decent video card.... drool.... Maybe OSAP money is better spent on computers. Or beer....

Ah OSAP, the cause of, and solution too, all of life's problems.

One of my civil buds actually owes OSAP for over 6 years of university education. I think he's up to over $50 000 now.

I'm sure he'll pay it all back in the 6 month period so that he doesn't get stuck with any interest payments.

If they can do it by hardware, they'll probably be able to do it by software. This is exactly what happened last time with the 9500's.

Sweet game bundle.

That's a lot of games...although quite a few of them do suck.

About 1/2 and 1/2 I'd say.
