Time to crack open a beer, check to see what baseball games are on the free preview of the MLB Extra Innings package, and then go looking for my 2x2 turn. [:D]

I am about to embark on a new adventure to build a new desktop machine. I need one to play Empire Total War with my son, daughter and her boyfriend.
Sounds like a lot of potential war mongering, back stabbing, and trash talking! Sounds like a ton of family fun! [8D]
I gotta build the computer first (and buy the parts)......

I was going to use an I5 500 series processor. That Empire game needs a really good video card. That I need help with.

Well, I had 30 days to choose between a very iffy prospect of finding another position with the company or a severance package of 3 month's pay. I chose door #2. [8D]

Same choice I had in January - I too chose option 2. Seemed like a good idea at the time. I have an interview next week for a new job - fingers crossed. Have you got something else lined up?

So, what's a good gaming video card?
Empire runs very well on my GeForce GTX 295, which is hardly state of the art. All settings maxed out, no problem.
