1 GB of memory for the video card? You mean something like this?

That's a professional card though. Desktop cards with 1GB aren't too far off but no one will need that much video memory for a while.

I realize that, but I just wasn't too sure if he's seen it before. So just showing him what I know.

I do hope ATI's new cards are awesome so NVIDIA will drop it's prices. I'm a fan of both company's but right now NVIDIA is crushing ATI with the 8 series cards.

I've had a 5500fx 6600 6800 ultra and now radeon 1650pro. the 1650pro is cheaper compared to its nvidia rival 7600gt and its got the same performance more or less. nvidia cant do HDR and AA whereas ATI can.
