I can buy a brand new 7800GTX for the same price as I paid for my 6800GT 
right now. So in 6 months time the cost could be whole lot less, also I 
believe epic have been demoing the unreal 3 engine on 6800 Ultra and the 
7800GTX as they are currently the only cards that show off its full 
potential, due to Pixel shader 3 usage.

As a true PC gamer I ensure I have hardware as up to date as possible to 
ensure I get the utmost enjoyment out of my chosen games. Notice I said 
game, not box. I am soon to upgrade to a dual core cpu due to doing a lot of 
multi tasking outside of game playing.
