DirectX 10-ready: the $599 XFX GeForce 8800GTX.Our mainstream Best Buy this month is EVGA's e-GeForce 7900 GT KO Superclocked graphics card. Combining great performance and an affordable $200 price, it edged out rivals based on ATI's competitive Radeon X1950 chip.

Strong test results and a terrific software bundle helped the $539 dual-GPU Asus EN7950GX2 top our power ranking, although it costs $39 more than EVGA's e-GeForce 7950 GX2, in fifth.

Also pricey is the power list's number two board, the $599 XFX GeForce 8800GTX; however, it's the fastest card that we've seen yet. Its new high-end nVidia GeForce 8-series GPU introduces physics processing and support for Windows Vista's DirectX 10 API, to enable more-advanced graphics in future PC games.
