Not rolling in money but came into a few bucks and my current favorite game runs like sludge. I'm on a duron 850 w/ 512mb or ram on an A7V with a Geforce DDR. Been looking around for a nice deal and the local store seems to be selling the new Radeon 8500LE 128mb for 200 bucks. Stopped keeping up with tech news a while back and was wondering if there is anything bad I should know about this card? It is duelhead right? Seems like a nice deal to me i'd appreciate any opinions.

128 megs of ram on a vid card is way overkill right now... Not sure where your at but if your in the US U can order the Retail 8500 NOT the LE for around 150... This is the full blown dual head version... I just picked up one that was used for 135.. and love it! I'd go that route...
