    Which card SHOULD I get?

    All this time, I was debating between a 7900GTO, 7950GT, and X1950XT. Yesterday, I talked to eclipseoc (from here) and he persuaded me in a new direction. Why spend the extra $ for those cards, when I can get a 7900GS, which performs almost as well as the others? Here are the games I play...

    I bought my Venice 3000+ @ 145$ last November Thanksgiving. I STILL haven't assembled my new PC and now, an FX55 costs as much as a 3000+. Should I sell the 3000+ for like 60$ (never been used before) and then buy the FX55 (altho id be doing it at a loss) or should i just stick with the Venice?
