That depends on the hardware setup in the PC, this job I interviewed for has given me a test PC that has longhorn loaded on it, but maxed the hardware out to, 2 200GB Drives, a DVD Burner and a 1GB video graphics card for gaming, :dog: not sure what brand the graphics card is though. but I know they retailed this pc at a price of about $8,000.00

Yeah, not too many games need 1GB graphics card. Including Doom 3.

You got that right. But I sure as hell wouldn't mind having a 1GB graphics card.
Speaking of graphics card, a new generation is out. Ati with the X800 and GeForce with the 6800 series.
