When I introduced myself on the nVnews forum one of the early remarks was that my 8600 was a weak link. That sure was deflating. Everything has it's price I guess..

As soon as I finish Half-Life Two again I'm going to buy the Orange Box if for no other reason than it's a good value for the money. I think Bioshock would run okay on my setup but I'm not buying just because of that SecureROM crap. I played the demo and later, after reading some posts on the 2K Games board found out that even the demo installs a "Root Kit" progam and verified it myself by running a microsoft utility that flags that crap. I've upgraded my rig since then and don't use those disk drives anymore, but the game sure did look good on this widescreen monitor I must say.
Crysis is best viewed on a DX10 card in Vista from what I've read.
