Which video card?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814102022
X1900GT, 512CC/1314MC, 12PP, 256-bit ($150) -OR- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814143049 7600GT, 580CC/1580MC, 12PP, 128-bit ($130) This is a tough choice. Bearing in mind a 3.2gHz single core Intel CPU and a gig of RAM, which one would you guys go for? For $20 more, you get a 256-bit card with the 1900GT, but it's a slower core and memory clock. Which one is the best bang for the buck?

The X1900GT will be a much better video card than the 7600GT. The 256-bit RAM does make a noticeable difference.
