Are you two living under a rock? They are one generation old, there are 48xx cards and GTX 260/280s. ---------------------------------

Well, I honestly don't keep up anymore. The newest card I have at home is an ATI X1800XT.
At one time, I used to upgrade my gaming rig like every 6 months. Looking back on that now, that's silly... ------------------------------------------------ Current Hobby other than EVE |

And this gamer agrees with the above sentiment. I purchased parts for a new system around late april-early may, one of the components was the 8800 GTS 512, personally I don't need the latest marvel in the video card branch to enjoy EVE or any other of the games I play.
I much rather save that money for when I really need it.

Who needs top of the range hyper-mega fast graphics? Half the games that come out don't support them anyway until they're at least 6 months old by which time you're looking at the latest upgrade again.
My 7600GT still runs 90% of the games I play with everything maxed out. Only games like Crysis have problems but even then it doesn't need much turned down to make it easily playable.
I took my PC to a friends house to play a Lan based game against him. He was using Vista and a DX10 card with the DX10 "special 3d effects" etc. To be honest, I wasn't that impressed. Even he admitted that when you put it next to a PC with standard graphic card like mine, there wasn't a great deal of difference, certainly not enough to make the card worth more than 4 tiimes the price of mine.
