If you are getting PCI Express, the X800XL is also a possible contender. It performs roughly equal to the 6800GT and you can pick one up for around 300 dollars at compusa. Out of the 2 brands, i'd pick BFG. I've heard PNY is pretty shady about support. you should look into a quality PSU as others have stated. an enlight 420 or a thermaltake 420 is pretty much the best bang for ur buck PSU now
