Thanks for those that helped nudge me towards getting an ATI HD 4850. My first ATI product in over 5 years.

Gaming has never been so dam good!

Purchased the Visiontek to go with my new 22" 1650x1080 lcd, E8400, 4gb's ram, 64-bit vista.

This card rocks! Max settings including max AA and AF for Left4Dead, Fallout 3 and I have to mop up the drool. No lag whatsoever. Don't even have to OC this thing.

Life is good. :attn: :p :clap:

Buh bye 7600GT. You served me well, but you ain't gonna be missed 1 bit heheh.

The 4850s are great cards for the money. I highly recommend the Accelero S1 heatsink for these cards, great bargain cooling and shouldn't be more then $25. Have fun.
