    You could probably pick up a new GTS 250 for $150 + shipping. Decent card. Will play games like BC2 on High/Ultra settings on 1920x1200 no worries.

    Make me a better offer than last time tho.
    They say if you play a Microsoft CD backwards, you hear satanic messages. Thats nothing, cause if you play it forwards, it installs Windows
