I agree - it may be a wait for DX10 to become a common part of my use but I
figure within a year it will probably be so - however I could use a good
video card very soon and would hate to have to buy another a year from now
because the $550 one I purchase next month doesn't cut it for the games that
will be available within a year. There are already several dx10 games that
should be out within a year that have piqued my interest.

This'll be a long wait. Vista ships Q1 2007, and DX10 will not be part of
the initial release, and even then Vista may not be usable until the
typical SP1 is released.

I have no issue with spending $560 for a card that equals the performance
of having 2x $445 cards - this is actually a savings although I'll
probably wait for a DX10 card since I won't buy the new CPU until next
month. Of course competition drives prices down but right now there
isn't adequate competition.
