Uhh... The original post is a tad misleading.
If you're going to get ANY (good) card that low, it would be the Radeon HD3850 256. I don't think it's gotten that low yet without deals, either.
I wouldn't purchase a card from Nvidia's 9000 series yet, because they all tend to crumble when you try to apply filters.
It's wonderful that they can render so much and at high resolutions, but if I can't have AA and AF on I really don't care.
That being said, console gaming has been really turning me off lately. Why play a 360/PS3 shooter when I can play them on my PC with higher settings and frame rates? Not only that, but with more precision and speed (since developers tend to slow things down a tad for console play).
By life end:
- Wii- 100 million+
- Xbox360- 35~40 million
- PS3- 30 million
- PSP- 30~32 million ------------- FAILURE
- NDS- 85~90 million (Skeptical) - FAILURE
- NDS- 100 million+ (Optimistic) -- Success!
