I have heard

Hell, Far Cry makes mincemeat out of my 9800 Pro. Mostly medium settings running 768RAM & a 2500+ XP.
 
its actually not supposed to be that bad. [H] did some testing with lower cards and got pretty decent frames. And ID is saying that the range of cards that you can use is pretty good also.

. . . and DAMN! My wife' has me on a "parts" embargo. I already ran the blockade last week to buy another P4C800E MoBo. (and now I have to buy CPU and RAM too).

She is not going to be happy about this at all!
