I am about to invest in a new computer system. I will use it for primarily for gaming. It will be a relatively high-end system with a 2.53 P4 processor, SIS-648 motherboard, 512mb of pc2700 DDR memory, etc.
However, I am torn when it comes to which graphics card to get. At first, I was leaning towards an ATI-Radeon 9700 Pro since it is the most powerful card out there. Still, if no current games require that kind of horsepower, would I be better off buying a much cheaper 128mb Geforce Ti-4200, while waiting for the Geforce FX boards to be released? I've read that quite a few games such as, EverQuest II, will be designed to take advantage of the features of the GeForce FX.
Any input would be helpful,
