I recommend that you do NOT go with the best card on the market... unless you have a huge amount of money to waste... in which case it would be better that you send the excess my way. You can get a card that costs 1/2 to 1/3 as much, and still does everything necessary to run today's high end games as well as tomorrow's. You do not need to spend an arm and a leg to buy hardware that will cost half as much in a month... the differences between the high end and medium end graphics cards are rather negligible at this point in time...

I was of this school of thought too but now I must stand my ground. For best performance and the best intergrated top of the line support buy the top of the line card. The cheepies lack a lot of the estials that there big brothers have. I made this mistake twice and I'm telling you if you want the best performance and most compatability with newer games and their features, pay the price.
