Everything turned up to the highest settings running at 1280x1024 I still get 100+frame/second. I've stopped playing Doom 3 (game was too dark and it really killed the fun to switch between the flashlight and the gun all the time) and I've picked up Far Cry. That game is simply awesome ! All my settings are on very high/ultra high using 1280x1024 and I get nice and smooth gameplay (can't tell you the FPS because I don't know how to check it in that game). I would recommend the ATI card because it's simply awesome. There is another variant of this card the X800 XT PE (Platinum Edition) but I didn't get it because at the resolutions I'm playing at (1280x1024 - my monitor will not go higher) the difference between the two cards is negligable.

You can't run Doom3 at highest settings without a 512MB video card. There is also a mod you can install that attaches a flashlight to the weapon so you do not have to switch..
