These prices are based on my cost plus your typical "mom and pop" VAR markup. Some retail store (Best Buy, CompUSA) prices may be higher. With back end rebates, co-op, etc., some e-tail (Newegg, Tiger, etc.) will likely be lower.

Your 7950GT is still a super-powerful card tho.

I love how it's really weak in 3Dmark06, but in actual games it's getting around +150% performance with AA slid to the max, compared to all our GeForce cards.

While impressive, isnt quite worth the upgrade from my GTX, yet.

On a side note, I might go ahead and buy me that 750W Silencer, since it seems it might be able to run these in SLi.
