wait about 2 weeks and get a 7900gtx
the 7900gtx's are estimated to cost 500+ US and he onlly has 480 in CA so thats like 300 something in US.

tehownage: you could wait and see if the 7900gtx brings the price down of the 7800gt and then get it. if you cant wait. EVGA has a speacial combo of a 7800gt and a SLI mobo for about 350 US.
