not to burst your bubble, but newegg has 1600pro's for as little as $85. The 7600gt is a good deal however and will murder the 1600 in every game, I just got one on newegg for $110. On-line pricing will ALWAYS win over in store any day.

Yeah we all make mistakes. I like to call it an "impulse buy" I had bought Battlefield 2 and couldn't play it, wanted a video card THAT NIGHT.

If it's $85, it wasn't an actual ATI card...I doubt; guess it depends how good that manufacturer is. I kind of wish I'd held off for the 7600GT, but this was a huge upgrade over my GF2 MX 400 or whatever it was

To put everything into perspective, the $30 graphics card is in the upper limit of my price range.
