The price difference is because the ones I showed are in canadian prices. I dont have enough money for the hd3850 but I think ive found a better card for the same price.

Depends on what games you wish to play but the 8600 and 2600 are only DX10 on paper anyway.. they don't have enough power.. look at DX9 cards (ATi DX9 still hold true in many games unlike many 7 series nvidia cards it seems)

I dont really intend on playing DX 10 Games with the card.
This is a perfect example where plenty of people provide the best help possible but to no luck with ignorant people. Trust us, the 3850 is a great card, it performs on a competly different scale for a minmial cost increase. The drivers are fine.
I cant afford the 3850 though. Thats why im going with the 8600 GTS.
ATI HD 3850s are going for $179 on www.ncix.com right now. They eat 8600GTS for breakfast. I mean like 30-50% more frames per second. The 8600 is really not a good investment of your money at this point in time espescially if your looking for around $165 for the card.
