The GTX is overkill for my needs, thats why I was going to get a GTS but thought I would future-proof a bit. I can't SLI anyway without an SLi mobo and would need a larger power supply.

yep, its like a paradox sometimes always having to upgrade if you want the best stuff, especially if you have ocd, hope you have fun with that beastly power station of a graphics card!

Yep its a good card, can play cod4 better now

The 7600gt ran cod4 fine in most circumstances on low, but got a bit laggy in situations with large amounts of people and smoke etc. Shipment Free For All was the worst lol.

Gggrrr price dropped by to £164 XFX GeForce 8800 GTX Extreme 768MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (PV-T80F-SHE9)

I bought it asap because they said it was the last batch of the cards from the manufacturer, they are obviously having a bit of trouble shifting them.
