Hey I just got my 2nd 8800gt....There's no way I am upgrading to another model now....at least until the new ones now drop significantly in price.

Well the as an ATI guy. The 4890 is the same thing as a 4870 just clocked higher. And it supports DX10.1. A 4870 can be had for as little as $135 on Newegg.

Hey Mark, don't forget the 4770 if you don't want to spend a wad of cash.
