better and cheaper than IST's ATI recommendation

if you have the money up front to wait for the rebate (54.99 before, 34.99 after), better than your old card

Gah, I forgot to check the 3450's clockspeeds. I thought they were lower than the 2400 Pro.

it's not just clockspeeds, it's minor architectural improvements as well

Just DX10.1, really.

From a graphics point of view, at least. It's got some other minor stuff like PCI Express 2.0 support.

This is the video card i decided on, it's just the video card, and the card with everything with it (which i have already with my last video card.. ) cost over 70 bucks. so that's a good bit of saving!

Hehe, I got lucky, got a 99.99 video card, Geforce 9 series.  50 dollars rebate and comes with a 2gb flash drive (free!)

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130356&Tpk=384-P3-N966-TR

PCIe 2.0 cards are compatable with computers that have PCIe 1.1 and 1.0

it annoys me, though, that nvidia is recycling cards with new model numbers (the 9600GSO is an 8800GS with a new sticker.  no differences whatsoever.)

ATi's done the same in the past.

Really, they both do stupid shit like that. ATi's never really done driver cheats on the scale that nVidia did back in the FX days, though. Something I give them respect for.
