yip, 7900gt is the best buy imaginable for price vs preformance. Loving every minute of mine.

For me @t the moment the Asus AP5N32 SLI and 930 P4 looks enticing! Performance for cost. The ram for the board is spec 667 and the later boards non SLI is spec DDR 800 with 1066 FSB (Non SLI). We are at a crossover point to better technology and I am contemplating to maybe hang in for month or two too get one of the New spec monsters like AMD AM2 or Intel true Dual versions, It a lot of $ and to buy now and be outdated in August would be heart breaking!

Which VGA card You have? Give some specs of the rig!

@ PUPA you have a PM.
I have not really had any temp issues, its at about 45' underload.
Had artifacting once or twice but it seems to be fixed with new drivers.

what drivers are you running?

is your card overclocked?

what was your previous card prior to the 7900GT you had?

tried a re-install of Oblivion?

do other games show similar graphical anomalies?
