If you have a friend who is following the latest and greatest in computer hardware and you ask a question "Hey, I want to upgrade my video card, what should I buy that is not too expensive but still being a good card?". You’ll get one answer. NVIDIA GeForce 8800GT. This card is still new in the market (probably around a month or two), it’s cheap for its value (around USD $200-300) and it delivers a very good performance!
The card is on demand here in Australia too, and because of that, the shops are selling it around AUS $400! 
Expect the price to drop when they get more stocks in December.
I’ll definitely want to upgrade my 7600GT to this one day when the price gets around AUD $300 or below.
