Here's what GPU-Z has to say about my graphics card:

Oh and btw my monitor is a 22" Samsung 226BW, and I have a Razer Lachesis mouse and Razer Reclusa keyboard.

This system so far has proven itself to be a good purchase (at $3000AUD it better be!). It lets me play Crysis on high - therefore it lets me play any game currently in existence on whatever setting I feel like. Its nice to finally to be able to enjoy games as they are intended to be played without making any sacrifices. :)

Am I right in that you only show 2 GB of RAM?  With all that, why not bump up to 4 GB?  Sure, you only get 3.5 with XP, but that's better than 2...

 

My laptop beats this desktop.  And it's a few years old.
