Thank Onion for the funniest Rummy Photoshop in a long time...
The Headline: Rumsfeld Hosts No-Holds-Barred Martial Arts Tournament At Remote Island Fortress

Other than that, anyone got any recommendations for a mid range Nvidia card (less than $200.00)?

3. Looks like a nice card. Are you using the multi display option?
or the digital output?

I'm using the VGA. I'm glad I went with the 128MB DDR; its pretty seamless, even when I crank the res up.

Multi-display is kinda overkill for me.

7. I am doing a lot of graphics and vid, plus I love my gaming...
I've never really used the dual monitor features NVidia offers, but I can now see that it would be nice to have in some cases.

4. Have you updated your drivers? (re: Nvidia question, not Rumsfield)
I ask because I just did, and everything magically got much better. Forgive it if it's a dumb question.

6. Drivers are current... Just a case of upgrade fever...
I'm one of those geeks that likes to have the fastest machines on the block. I'm running a GForce 4 w/64 megs of ram and am now looking to go to either an fx5600 or 5700 with 256 megs.

Just upgraded a Nokia/Triniton 21" CRT to a like sized LCD and now want the Digital output of the newer cards.

Then, Ill be upgrading my old (266 mgz) DDR RAM to 400 mghz...

I'm going to be having an ebay sale in a couple of weeks. :)
