one recent comparision listed the 66gt as the Best Buy option.(most speed
for the least amount of $$ spent)
I think, it would be an acceptable short term solution, but if you plan on
continued simming past current sims, then upgrading more to the 6800gt or
the 7800 might be advisiable.
one of the new tracks for rF is Lienz and some users are reporting a much
higher system load than previous tracks. So saving a little money now
might only mean more money spent in the not too distant future.
I always say, never believe the posted recomended levels for any game.
Never save money on CPU purchases(go for as much as you can afford)
and saving money on a video card now only means more expenditures sooner.

newegg has an x850xt for 159.00

think this is the best bang for the buck right now. You could wait for
prices to drop some more, theres been a lot of new cards released in the
past month..
Except he'll need a new motherboard for that.

I think the x850xt is a faster card by a mile..
