Get this one, EVGA is the best nvidia vendor and has a lifetime warranty if you register it within a month. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130377
just wanted to let ya know I ordered that card last night. Just in time to still get the rebate

i'd say get the gtx+ or the 8800gt.. because i think your cpu is going to bottleneck .. or invest in a better cpu and yeah...

It's a good card. Perhaps not in this situation, but such a broad statement is uncalled for.
maybe the 640mb or 320mb versions?

8800gts is crap, why get it for more money than a 9800gt when its the same thing.
8800gts 650mhz core, 9800gt 600mhz core.
8800gts 1972 mhz mem, 9800gt 1800mhz ram.
8800gts dual slot HSF rear exhaust,9800gt single slot cooler.
8800gts $189.99, 9800gt $129.99 -$20MIR

The gts 8800 has higher spec than the 9800gt, the 9800gt beats it in price, but if you want to over clock the 9800gt you will have to start looking into adding a different cooling solution, costing more money and warranty gone.

With that monitor and setup, save some cash and get a 8800gs or a 9600GSO. There won't be a huge difference between that and a 9800GTX, except the price and power consumption. MAYBE get a 9600GT.

Pros: I loaded up Bioshock and maxed out the settings, but this graphics slit the game's throat then ate it's entrails for dessert. It slammed Assassin's Creed's head onto the curb then stomped its head into that curb until it was nothing but a bloody pulp. This card is one bad mo-fo. It'll backhand your sister and degrade your mom, but they will still love it and want to date it because it is just that good. I love this card so much that I burned my tongue trying to french kiss it, and I still keep trying.

Yes, it will be fine. The card will work perfectly.

Also, feel free to start your own thread with questions like this. This particular thread has been idle for quite some time.
