Best Buy's has a sale on this video card this weekend - its an OC 5500, and BFG has lifetime guarantees on their cards if you're still looking.

Not yet, I'm fixing a neighbor's pc whose video card might have shot craps, if so.. she can have my card and I'll order this one or another one for myself. Funny how that works. :)
I'll let you know which one I go with if that's the problem with her pc. The biggest thing is HL2 runs better on ATI cards.
Thanks again,
Todd

no prob dude. She paid you to fix hers ? Nicely done... :D
Of course I did, anyway it's actually her sisters. I charged her $20 extra to fix two computers. She now has a GeForce MX420 video card and I have a GeForce 5500 card. :)

Installed it today. Piece of cake and for some reason the colors on the screen look much brighter. Could just be me though.
I'm getting MVP 2004 for Christmas, we'll see how well that plays with the new card. Thanks again.
That Geforce MX 420 will run like mad on her PII 400 pc. :)
