How much is it? I found the same one for $122.
If you want 256MB version the best I found is $163.
If you want XT128, then $205.

well i just ran it through a currency converter and i see the dollar has gone down a lot lately so it's around 200$ for it thats 1300NOK <----Norwegian Kroners
So my budget can go to 300$ now, thought the dollar was higher than it is...

Don't you need an AGP card, not PCI-E?
asus z170-A || core i5-6600K || geforce gtx 970 4gb || 16gb ddr4 ram || win10 || 1080p led samsung 27"

Im an ATI fan but currently the best bang for your buck is the Geforce 6600GT OC. I picked one up after my 9800 Pro that i modded to an XT died.

I myself am currently also in the process of choosing a new card too, what bothers me is that I can't find a clear test with benchmark results of the newest cards. I found some forums on which this same discussion (mostly 6600GT or X800) was going on and on those forums the x800 was advised by more people than the 6600GT. So based on this I think i'm going for the x800. My budget will be around 200 euro's and those cards are for sale for a little bit more then that.

I think i will be going for a x800 aswell, just need a good place to buy it because i don't want to use a months wage for a new card, i just need one that holds for a while like a year and a half before i need to think about getting a new one again.

Sorry, could you possibly link some of these discussions Bill. Most review sites have given the 6600GT editors choice gold awards and such.

hehe, a little bit over my budget but maybe if i'll wait just a little more...
I always buy my stuff at alternate (www.alternate.nl). It is 20 minutes driving away and they are always among the cheapest in the netherlands. The card that you mentioned is 340 euro's in the dutch shop but since alternate is orriginaly german maybe we get that price (299) a little later, let's hope!

My bad, I always fuck up my conversions. But its still expensive for something thatll be outdated REALLY soon. |

Rubberchicken :
Since you're norwegian, I recommend you go to www.hardware.no, enter the forum, make a new post in the "Hjelp til kjøp / salg av PC", and you'll get the BEST results for the price YOU want!
And they also tels you if it will work with the rest of the parts you got in your computer!
Without that forum, I would ended up with a expansive, sucky computer..
But thanks to them, I found something GOOD and CHEAP!
I hate you.
