No that was an nVidia Geforce FX5500 TV/DVI DDR 128MB(or 256MB). A guy from another board upgraded from a 64MB Intel Extreme Graphics Card to that and said the graphics pwned on the nVidia Geforce FX5500.

Yep.  Default voltage is 1.45v, so it overclocks like crazy.  If I turned up a the fan, I could get it stable at 2.8 ghz.

Anyway, fx5500 is a pretty...low end card.  Check out Vulture's computer specs for some nice gfx action.

Thanks cmonkey. My current one stinks (450mhz Pentium 3 Dell w/ 96mb RAM), but the one I will be building (as soon as I get better grades..ie not 3.25 and more like a 3.7) is listed below.

Mic's New Comp:
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ Socket 939
ASUS 'A8N-SLI Deluxe' nForce4 SLI
Leadtek nVIDIA GeForce 6600GT
MGE QUANTUM Black ATX Mid Tower
Thermaltake Silent PurePower 680W Power Supply
Hitachi 160GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive
OCZ Performance Series 1GB DDR PC-3200
ZALMAN CPU Cooler for Socket 478/A/754/939/940
HKC 775CA 17" CRT Monitor
ASUS Black 16X DVD-ROM/ 48X CD-ROM Drive with QuieTraK
Arctic Silver Ceramique
LITE-ON SK-1788/BS Standard Black/Silver Keyboard
Logisys 80mm Case fan with 9 LED Blue Red
Microsoft Black IntelliMouse Optical Mouse
Samsung Black Floppy Disk Drive
AUDIO 18" 2-pin Connector
X-Ray THUNDER 9 Professional Mousepad

Total is a bit above 1400$, but just right above 1500$ after shipping, which is what I was aiming for. I know some of the stuff there is a bit overkill (ie PSU), but I plan on buying all this stuff in hope that this system will last me a long time. Most of it is said to overclock good, and thats why I'm buying it; in contrast, I will not overclock it to make it last longer (ex. 9 years like my current comp).

This also sets me up to buy the 2nd video card during college. I plan to get this stuff going on before the next big LAN party over in Conneticut.
