I've been playing around with this winex/cedega thing here for a while now. At first things looked good, but I've yet to really get anything working with it. From what I can find it pretty much all boils down to this ATI card as being the problem. There are lots of issues reported with ati cards and many recommendations to go with nvidia. So I think that my next video card will end up being an nvidia chipset. The question now is, which one?

After doing a bit of searching I'm thinking about picking up the MSI GeForce FX5900XT-VTD128 128MB. This looks to be the best bang for the buck in the nvidia lineup right now. (from what I can see anyways) I found a pretty good review of the card over at FiringSquad.com. From the review the MSI card was also mentioned as the quitest of the FX5900XT's which is an added bonus for me as well. Now I just need to find some money :)
