    Still, id rather get a 7900GS and mod it... By the time DX10 games come out, the 8600GTS will run them like ass, unless you turn down the settings.

    Exactly, Dx10 might as well not even be implemented on low end cards and the 8600 is a low end not mid range card IMHO

    I can see Nvidia getting spanked by the 1950** cards in this range and maybe slaughtered by the new ATI/AMD offerings


    oh and whirrrlypool, what a bad joke
    lots and lots of cores and lots and lots of tuners,HTPC's boards,cases,HDD's,vga's,DDR1&2&3 etc etc all powered by Corsair PSU's
