I just recently got an ATI Radeon X700 Pro when I built my new computer. This mofo can really haul. Price isn't outrageous at ~ $299, but the catch is that it's a PCI Express card. For anyone thinking of upgrading their computers - and possibly their motherboards - PCI Express is the way to go. 16x pipeline instead of AGP 8x, so it's effectively twice as fast. B)
