Hey Ron I had no luck with ATI products myself but you can go to www.pricewatch.com and get a complete list and prices of video cards

Ron,

Go with the RADEON, you'll love it and for the bucks, you can't beat it!

I have the 7000 and it's a great card!

Hey Ron, The Powered by ATI Cards (Sapphire Technology) that newegg sells are excellant cards at a slightly lower cost, which means that you can go up a step in the VRAM. They will use the regular ATI Drivers and Sapphire keeps their own site up to date.
Very well built.

I picked up a Radeon 7500 Retail box at Best Buy Wed. I needed to pick up a gift right away. This card was $99 after rebate. Not the lowest price but I needed it NOW.

It's for my son; he's in the hospital after having his appendix removed. Looks like a nice card. Thanks for the recommendation!
