Intel 915 Chipset
P4 3.0E Prescott
1GB Kingston PC3700
Maxtor DM10 16MB Cache 300GB SATA HD
Lite-On 1633S
X700Pro PCIe Vid Card (Coming soon)
3.5" Card Reader
PCI Firewire 800 (1394B) Card

My question to all, I am new to PCIe do you think this is a wise choice? or should I save for the X800XL or greater?

the card is pretty nice. In modern games it is slightly faster then a 9800pro and XT, but in older ames it is slightly slower then the same card.

It playes city of heros Just fine. thats about the only game I have used it with.
