lol 7800GS

Good catch!

Lenny, this is a 7900GS

No mistake - Rexer was asking about the 7800GS and you were asking about the 7900GS. You briefly hijacked Rexer's thread but it's all good info.

You guys are great and you convinced me to do a better upgrade!

Here's what I now have on order from newegg:

BIOSTAR TForce6100-939 Socket 939 NVIDIA GeForce 6100 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail

eVGA 256-P2-N624-AR GeForce 7900GS 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 KO Video Card - Retail

I know it isn't exactly what you recommended but I'm confident it will work with my ram, be of decent quality and be a much better upgrade path then the one that I was heading down.

Thanks,
Jason

Great upgrade from a TRS-80. My upgrade was from a TI 99/4A.

Thanks, I'm really excited to play Battlefield in 3D!

Do you guys know if Newegg voids an order after it has been shipped. This is what it looks like for my order under order status. Notice the red area.

Status Legend:

Step 1: Your order has been successfully submitted. Your credit/debit card has not yet been charged. Please allow 1-2 business days for your order to process and ship.

Step 2: Verification and fraud prevention measures are complete. Your credit/debit card has not yet been charged.

Step 3: Your credit/debit card has been successfully charged. Please note that you may no longer make changes to your order.

Step 4: Your order contents will soon be packaged and sealed.

Step 5: Your order has shipped. You may view your tracking information by clicking the applicable "View" link above. However, your tracking number may not appear immediately as the shipping couriers update only periodically. Your tracking number(s) will also be sent via email to your Newegg.com login.

Void: Your order is cancelled. Void orders are null and cannot be re-processed. If you need to re-order as a result, please do so on our website. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us for help.

They are just saying that 'void' is a possible order status NOT the status that occurs after Step 5.
