Ya, lol, how about this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102601

It's the x800GTO 256MB, 12Pipelines, 480/980Mhz... same price
So you would be getting 4 extra pipelines and an extra 5Mhz core speed for the same price.

thx, im not really sure about all this stuff but usually its just teh highest number wins, but theres so many out there its hard to pick from, thx for the help

i heard this one cant be overclocked??? is that that big of a deal, but then again the reviews said that these people played HL2 Doom3 and BF2 on highest with AAx4 with no problems???? so would you think this would be the same with my new comp (in sig)????

I have that card, but mine is made by Diamond. I overclocked mine from 480 Core / 980 Memory to 550 Core / 1070 Memory. I play HL2 maxed out at AAx4 and Anisotrophic (sp?) at 16x with no lag. Also play CoD2 maxed out.
