When I was growing up, I was told I could be anything I wanted... so I became an asshole!

biggest problem with Macs......it is a Mac

Finding compatible software is actually the only reason why I don't get one.

I'm running a PC. Can't recall the specs but it is about 2 years old now. Still very stable. I would probably switch to a Mac if I had a need to upgrade but I'm fine for now

But wait! There's MORE....

My old PC twitched its last this morning...been going downhill for a while now.

Four hundred smackers bought me:

Core 2 Duo, E7400 2.8 ghz
3gb ram, only two working for some reason
Foxconn MOBO. Fox conn????
7900gt 256mb PCI-E that was given to me last week

It freakin' flies. Runs Sturmovik so fast it made me weep openly, WITH 2X AA on and all mods.

Ok, sports fans, can you help me?

I have a 7900GT right now. I have a chance to get another cheap card, which of these is best:

MSI GF8400GS 512MB PCI-E w/Low Profile Adapter 59$

Asus EN6200/TC512/TD 256MB (512MB Max)PCI-E 65$

MSI GF6800GS 256MB w/DVI & TV Out 59$

Asus EN6200/TC512/TD 256MB (512MB Max)PCI-E 65$

Will any of these be better than my 7900??

I've always said I would own both systems if I could afford it (Mac for dedicated Photoshop & Video editing). I'm way too big of a hardware nerd though to abandon PC's entirely. Its just way too much fun building systems and I use the PC to write music and play some pretty intensive games (with a 3 monitor setup).
