I'll throw in a new car smell air freshener :p

Nah people it depends on what you're after, if you want a new card get acex1138's; if you want a used card get mine, in the end you're winning because these cards are great for pc gaming

I was just looking at comparisons and it turns out this 7900gs is better than a 9500gt which I was also looking at and not *too* far behind a 9600GT, I might not bother upgrading after all considering now this computer is a mac and I won't be playing games on it anyway lol, probably just get a big hard drive

i wouldnt bother with the 9600 its really sub par, back at last upgrade went from a 7800gtx to a 9600 cos msy tried to rip me off, put a 9600 in a 9800 box and hoped i wouldnt notice, its performance is sub 7800 but it does dx10 ok.

the 4850 is pretty good and a great entry card, the other benefit is you can play with it now then pickup a crossfire board and a 58xx series card when they are out and STILL have it working for you

Sucks MSY would do that but I'm not surprised, I loved my 4850 and tried everything I could to get it working in OS X but without an apple bios and without support from pc efi/the other methods I'm stuck with no display in OS X or having to go back to Windows which I don't want to do, if I can't sell it I'll just stick it in the wifes computer and play games every now and then on it
