Make sure that you get the 9600 XT and not the standard 9600 if you opt for the budget card. My 9600XT works great on my 2g N'wood machine.

I've flown beta a few times, it would be wise for those diehards that are sticking with AH1 until the bitter end to get your butts in the beta arena or else you'll be flying like total noobs when it goes live and AH1 is no longer......

....ummm, nevermind, I've forgotten how much fun killin' sheep is.

2nd that on the ATI 9600XT excellent card by far the best bang for the buck card I've ever put in a system. Far better then the GeForce FX cards but I'm biased towards ATI.

Get a constant 75fps in AH2

That's excellent news.  I placed an order for the 9600XT yesterday.  Hopefully it will arrive within the next couple of days and I can install it over the weekend.  $175 at ProVantage.Com was cheaper than off-the-shelf and I'm going to be too busy doing non-computer stuff for the next couple of days to miss playing.  I wanted to stay under $200, which pretty much ruled out the 9800 series.

I'll probably play more with AHII.  AH just got stale for me, like a lot of folks.  It never was bad, it just never changed.

I expect more hours in AHII once it goes live.  The download here on this dialup in Texas is killing me so I haven't tried it here (using son's computer).  I head back to Washington this weekend so I will probably download it at home and re-try it.  The early betas were fine but not that impressive.
