I'm still using a Geforce 8800 GTS that only has 320MB of memory. I hope its better than that at least, because I ordered one.

My laptop has nVidia GeForce GTX 560m 2GB VRAM, I'm not sure of the other specs. I'll go check but I want to know the exact specs of this card you guys offer. A friend may want to get it and I need to know if I should try to help him.

My card:
nVidia GeForce GTX
560m (mobile)
2GB GDDR5 VRAM (Dedicated video memory, for those who don't know what this is)
I'm gonna edit the post once I find out the other specs of my card.

CCP's nVidia Card offer:
nVidia GeForce GTX
560* (obviously not mobile but what set of letters after?)
How much VRAM?
Other specs?
I will add the specs to the topic top message once I get them, for anyone else who wishes to know.

Well the point is moot now that they are sold out, but Its definitely not worth $400 no 560 is. It doesnt seem to be the TI edition and doesnt have Fermi from what i've heard but I don't have one. Either way I'd go with this if hes still looking for a card:

Its one of the best mid-range cards right now, If hes looking for something higher they just released the 680 gtx for around $400-$450ish but I never trust new GFX cards, give it a few months for decent driver updates.

Everyone always hates on ATI but I swear by them now.My last nvidia card in my laptop got the dreaded nv_disp.dll BSOD I've had ATI cards in this desktop that I built a couple months ago and my old gateway 10 yr old desktop and never had a driver issue yet others claim ATI drivers are t3h sux so who knows personal preference I guess
