Looks good and not a bad price, assuming that's around the same price in American $.

However, I'm a die-hard fan of Intel processors and nVidia GeForce cards.

yeah i wanted a nvidia card too but then oblivion fried 2 geforce 7600 that or they both came in bad state (which i doubt both were :o) so then i got a radeon x1900GT which is just good, running all latest games at max config without a single problem in the game speed, untill directx10 games start to come hehe
nvidia cards are somehow just cursed for me lol about the 3 times ive tried to buy a geforce card everytime it either came in bad state, broken, or just got fried in a few days and i always end with ati lol

This is a problem with some nVidia cards. The 4400 MX cards had major overheating problems, I burned out one on NWN and Cuchulann fried two of those exact model cards.

Throbble runs a 7600 but hasn't had any problems.
