Personally I wouldn't waste my cash on a x16 card.

I would buy a 9800GT x16 2.0 card...can get it for 100 bucks...or you could pick up a 4870 for 200 bucks.

You can use a 2.0 card in 1.1 slot.

Ok, well, did they make a 8800 GTX with a PCIE 2.0 x16 slot?

What is better between PCIE 2.0 and PCIE 2.0 x16? Or is the same, like for motherboard(from TigerDirect in description) they just not put the full name of the slot exemple ; show motherboard with PCIE 2.0 slot connection but the full name is PCIE 2.0 x16? I mean is it the same or is 2 different slots connection? Oh well don't answer, if you think my question are stupide(the second question) lol.

XFX Radeon 48XX Oo never heard about that, but I seen some image of this card and they look totaly like a GeForce. I didn't find any test and I can only buy from TigerDirect and Newegg and they don't sell this card and other series. So if you think the XFX 9800 GTX+ Black Edition and the XFX GeForce 8800 GTX is to expensive for the performance or what you want. Can you suggest me a graphic card, if so, don't give me the series named and series number, give me the named of the company made the card you suggest me exemple; sapphire, XFX

Thankx!

Sorry, I was meaning don't give me just the series number of the card give me the company named like sapphire, XFX(exemple) that build the card you suggest me

Well 4850 ok but wich one? lots of company made it... Tell me one that can enter in a budget of 150$ -250$(canadian)

And did a ATI card can be compatible with a SLI motherboard?

But I have also buy a GIGABYTE GeFOrce 9800 GT OC 1GB here the link from where I buy it http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=35035&vpn=GV-N98TOC-1GH&manufacture=Gigabyte do you think I need to change for a better one or this one are pretty good? Opinion please :)
