I just upgraded my dual-athlon server from a GeFORCE Ti4200 to a GF 6800
GT.   Incredible difference both in 2D and 3D.   I'm throwing High Quality
settings at 1600x1200 in Doom3 Native and Half Life 2 over Transgaming's
Cedega 4.2 and not seeing any slow down (60 fps).   I've been waiting
months to get that card at cost at Comp.  Well worth it.

I am also amazed now that I can play the very latest windows games without
a problem on linux  (doom3 & hl2; Max Payne2 next) (I dare say with fewer
problems than the windows' people experience!)

By contrast, the Radeon 9600 I have in my htpc has been a RPITA - and slow
- on linux!
