That sounds like a great computer Bus! Now I'll be all alone in crappy compy land. All the games that came out last year have minimum requirements higher than my PC.

I can guaruntee one thing though Bus, you will be AMAZED at how cool NWN looks with a new NVidia card (pay special attention to the rugs placeables).

Hahaha, same one. rofl.

I prefer ATI, always have. Actually in December I had a discussion with a techy I know, he says he thinks of them as the best, as do I, but we both agree that it's a bitch when you need to have the hardware installed to uninstall the drivers for it. -_- Major flaw. Other than that though, gaming wise especially, I prefer no other. Nvidia is definately my next choice after it.

I used to only use ATI.  Now I used Nvidia because I got fed up with how crap the ATI drivers are.  So far no problems with Nvidia

That's what Throbble's computer is for, actualyl I was surprised that I meet the minimum system requirements for Guild Wars (sort of).
