Seriously though, looks a v.nice card, but when I upgrade, I plan to get the 9800xt, or better if possible, I want something I don't have to replace for a while.

There wasn't much difference between the 9600 and the 9800 from what I've seen. SO for 1/4th the money, I could have 2x the memory and a very cool card.

The 9800xt has 256Mb of memory same as the 9600xt, and slightly better pipelining, however, you are right, having looked at the two, the difference is not worth the extra price.
Doesn't matter, by the time I can afford to upgrade, there'll be something else out anyway

I actually got a GF4 to replace a TNT2.

I upgraded from my Geforce2MX 32MB 100/200 to a Sapphire Radeon9600XT 256MB DDR. And i love it.

I replaced a TNT with a Geforce 2 GTS. I'll replace that with a Radeon 9500 sometime.

Well, I wouldn't have the tuner card if I had space for a television, but it does work pretty good.  The signal is as clean as you can expect after being converted to display at 1024x768@85hgz.  The software can even act like a DVR, the trick is finding a happy medium between quality and file size.  I don't have the HD space to let it crank out multi-gig AVIs or MPGs.
