Man, anytime I see a video card under $100 I go through a couple emotions: first I get excited, then I get nervous that the card is going to be a waste of money.

If you're stuck with a piece-of-junk card like I am, this might not be a bad upgrade; but if you have a half-decent card already, I would save for a little longer and invest in something that will last you awhile and not have to be upgraded again in 6-12 months. Just my opinion.

I would have to agree. This is a GREAT card for the advertised price. It will easily handle most games at very pretty graphics levels. But it isn't at the level of the nVidia 8800 or 9800 series of cards. Then again, this card isn't in the $150-$500 range either.
