well ive decided to buy a new graphics card before i rip this blinky cod4 playing machine out of the wall and throw it in my banana tree grove w00t2.gif biggrin.gif . on a serious note ,im running a nvidia 512 7600 gs and simply isnt cutting it,very blinky and laggy. i dont know if my budget is with the 8800 gtx although im very tempted. is there a cheaper card thatll play this game awesome ? could i get another card and run it with my current card?

i need suggestions at a budget of about 200 to 300 is more reasonable.im actually begging .

Undead its funny you brought this subject up.

I am in the same boat and was going to ask the same question last night.

With some help from Capt. krueger pointing me in the direction to up grade my pc so i can run cod4.

Bestbuy has the 8800gt priced at $279.00.but you have to wait 1 to 2 weeks for deliveryThe model up from that 8800gts was $299.00.that can be shipped in 1 to 2 days.the model up from that the 8800gts qc i think its called is at $329.00.

I went to microcenter also and amozon neither gave me a better price.

I have a radeon x800xt now and if i recall i have had to replace it 2 times.

So i think im going to go with a nivdea this time around.

if you find any other better prices please let me know.

O yea Thanks alot Krueger.
