    X800XT to X850XT possible?

    well i have been playing around with it, i have my core stable at 570 and the ram at 525, i reckon the ram could be more stable but i dont know how you change the voltage and if i could get the specs of 590 for core and 540 for ram then it would be an X850 XT Pe wont it in terms of stats?

    Can someone recommend a good graphic card

    cool, i dont mind either, i was thinking if i got an ATI then eventually i could crossfire it but then the crossfire cards themselves are expensive, bette of putting the money towards Direct X Ten ones... So the 7900GTO is a good choice, any others, any advice on either of the ram
