[Flafurs] Gaming PC - $800

$750 won't build you a good gaming system.  The video card I have was
limited, which means, you won't find a Gainward 7800 with a G71 build
512MB anywhere.  It's basically a 7900 GT with the 7800 name slapped on it.
Look up reviews on it and you'll see I'm not making it up.

Eight memory chips working at 1200 MHz with 425Mhz core.
Basically it has a G71 core PCIe bridged down to an AGP.
20 Pipelines.  (Most regular cards have only 16).

So.. this card was NOT over-priced.

If you want all the info on the video card:
