Im considering upgrading my graphics card from a 6600gt.
I'm leaning towards the 8600 gt because it can be had for around 115 dollars on newegg and because fo its unified direct architecture.
Im going to use it mainly for playing games like CS:S, DOOM, Company of Heroes, etc. and some photo/video editing.
I know its not the best choices in the world.
and if you wouldn't pick either of those what would you recommend from nvidia for less than 150 dollars US?
PS im only a 17 yr old kid and money is SUPER tight with me....so im looking to get something that will at least get me through next year.
