I use a 7900gs right now, seems that if you don't use AA AF then I can play pretty much eveything (Assasin's Creed//CoD4//COHOF etc) at 1280x1000. So I guess not in a hurry to upgrade that to 9600GT yet. But the one game I have no chance playing is Crysis, it's play like 5 FPS if I turn on enough eye candy, but that game is all eye candy if you can't turn up quality it look pretty ugly. But that one game don't seem like much reason to upgrade right now. Only game I will upgrade for is the StarCraft II, if I can't play it then I'm getting a 9600GT/8800GT the week after it comes out. I bet in a few months I get a 9800GT even.
