I get sapphire ati cards, and I think the make some major parts for ati so there cheaper than the ati cards themselves.

I would choose the Sapphire or HIS X1900XTX. Reasonable price and performance.

I would get a HiS X1900XT for $509 from NewEgg, and it easily overclocks to XTX speeds with built in ATI drivers.

Yup, I agree with the HIS X1900XT for $509. I came so close to ordering that card. If money's no object and he wants to go nuts though, The HIS X1900XTX IceQ3 is so scrumpdilyicous *drool*

well im goin with the his x1900xt.
thanks for the advice guys

Get a X1900XT. The XTX is about $100 more, for only a 4% clock increase. If you really want XTX clock speeds, just overclock it.
